Why does Moriah practice closed communion?
• The word communion is a conjunction of the words common and union. We believe that members of Moriah Primitive Baptist Church have a common union one with another that does not exist with nonmembers. This common union speaks of an intimate fellowship at the church level and in no way reflects an exclusivity with regard to eternal salvation. This common union speaks of a submission and a service we have one to another that we do not require of nonmembers. We appreciate visitors and invite visitors to request this common union when convicted to do so.
