What biblical basis is there for such a stipulation???

[Salvation]

In imitation of what Christ used. Have you seen the pictures of what he probably used. Does not look like a present day chalice, but it was metal. I’ll see if I can find the picture.

[Salvation]

The chalice that Christ would have used probably had two handles -- maybe the last picture is most accurate. I think it's coming back into style, though.

///
why does there need to be one?

what did the universal church do,
for the first 2 or 3 hundred years,
before there WAS a collection of books,
called the Bible?
...and even the Bible itself,
makes references to traditions,
and even holy scripture,
that is NOT including in the Bible...
