We believe that
baptism is the first
ordinance, and
that no one has a
right to the Lord’s
Supper unless he
has first been
baptized by the
proper authority,
and is in order
with his brethren
at home. To
participate in the
communion
service, or
sacramental
supper, with
others, or
otherwise, we
deem to be
disorderly. By the
term: “in order
with his brethren
at home”, we do
not simply mean
with what may
termed or
designated as the
band of his
membership. One
might have a
membership in a
local body that is
not in order.
