Luther


“I wish, and it ought to be so, that no mass at all would be celebrated except at such times as the people were present who really desired the sacrament and asked for it, and this would be only once a week or once a month, for the sacrament should never be celebrated except at the instigation had a request of hungry souls, never because of duty, endowment, custom, ordinance or habit.” Martin Luther, Receiving Both Kinds in the Sacrament, LW, AE, 36:256-7
