  We got an invite, like normal. We told them no, but did not offend them. They are just doing what they are told to do.

  6 million+ people all gathered on one night to refuse the wine and bread as it is passed from one to another.
  The ultimate slap in the face they give Jesus as they reject His provision for salvation.
  John 6:53-56 So Jesus said to them, “ I assure you : Unless you eat the flesh of the Son of Man and drink His blood, you do not have life in yourselves. Anyone who eats My flesh and drinks My blood has eternal life, and I will raise him up on the last day, because My flesh is real food and My blood is real drink. The one who eats My flesh and drinks My blood lives in Me, and I in him.

  Yep -- so did I. I don't tell them that I won't be going, I just thank them. Its not worth getting into an argument about why I don't want to go.
