We must not make great knowledge, and great strength of grace, an indispensable qualification for communicants. A man may know but little, and be no better than a child in spiritual strength, but he is not on that account to be excluded from the Lord’s table. Does he really feel his sins? Does he really love Christ? Does he really desire to serve Him? If this be so, we ought to encourage and receive him. Doubtless we must do all we can to exclude unworthy communicants. No graceless person ought to come to the Lord’s Supper. But we must take heed that we do not reject those whom Christ has not rejected. There is no wisdom in being more strict than our Lord and His apostles.

INSTRUCTIONS

Drain clams and put aside the liquid. Mix the clams, chicken, and cream
cheese together. Add enough of the clam liquid to make the mixture smooth.
Add onion, mayonnaise, salt, and pepper to the mixture. Be sure to mix
well. Put approximately 1 teaspoon full on each melba toast round and
sprinkle with a little parsley for color. You could garnish each melba
round with a small slice of carrot or olive, however, garnish (other than
the parsley) is not included in this recipe's total for nutritional
information. If desired, you may update the recipe to include the garnish
of choice and thereby include the garnish's nutritional value into the
recipe total (and individual serving nutritional data).

“We can do nothing, we say sometimes, we can only pray. That, we feel, is a terribly precarious second-best. So long as we can fuss and work and rush about, so long as we can lend a hand, we have some hope; but if we have to fall back upon God — ah, then things must be critical indeed! #A.J. Gossip”
