Dan,
I don't see it as salvational one way or the other. I do know that Jesus said "as oft as you do this" but that raises the question... as oft as you do what... come together to eat, come together at the time of Passover celebration, or what?
Following a strict literalist view I would say that there is a requirement for celebration of the Passover supper in rememberance of the TRUE paschal lamb offered once for all.
I feel that, while it is nice to have the celebration as a public rememberance, we should be continually aware of the sacrifice of the cross and live our lives according to the rememberance of all that was accomplished there.
