2 1 Notice that a careful reading of this verse indicates that the "elders and priests" kneeled down "with the church" meaning that the entire congregation was also kneeling during the sacramental prayers. This was practiced among many Latter-day Saint congregrations until the late 1800's. See D&C 20:76 and footnote #10 in this article. | |
3 O God, the Eternal Father, we ask thee in the name of thy Son, Jesus Christ, to bless and sanctify this bread to the souls of all those who partake of it; that they may eat in remembrance of the body of thy Son, and witness unto thee, O God, the Eternal Father, that they are willing to take upon them the name of thy Son, and always remember him, and keep his commandments which he hath given them, that they may always have his Spirit to be with them. Amen. | 3 |
