- Question 107.
- What is the Lord's Supper?
- Answer:
- The Lord's Supper is a holy ordinance, wherein, by giving and receiving bread and wine, according to Christ's appointment, His death is showed forth, and the worthy receivers are, not after a corporeal and carnal manner, but by faith, made partakers of His body and blood, with all His benefits, to their spiritual nourishment, and growth in grace.
( 1 Corinthians 11:23-26; 10:16 )- Question 108.
- What is required to the worthy receiving of the Lord's Supper?
- Answer:
- It is required of them that would worthily (that is, suitably) partake of the Lord's Supper, that they examine themselves, of their knowledge to discern the Lord's body; of their faith to feed upon Him; of their repentance, love, and new obedience: lest, coming unworthily, they eat and drink judgment to themselves.
( 1 Corinthians 11:27-31; 1 Corinthians 5:8; 2 Corinthians 13:5 )
