How do we know that all true believers can partake in the Lord's Supper?

Answered in 1 source

We know all true believers can partake in the Lord's Supper because they possess faith in Christ for their salvation and acceptance with God.

The central issue of worthiness in the context of the Lord's Supper, as indicated in 1 Corinthians 11:27-29, revolves around a believer's faith. Paul emphasizes that eating or drinking without discerning the Lord's body constitutes unworthiness. However, he reassures us that every true believer who trusts in Christ's perfect sacrifice for their sin is worthy. Faith in Jesus alone, rather than personal merit or works, qualifies one for participation in this holy ordinance. The Lord’s Supper is intended for those who recognize their own unworthiness and rely on Christ's grace for salvation.
