How do we know that the Lord's Table is not a sacrament?

Answered in 1 source

The Lord's Table is not a sacrament but a command from Jesus to remember Him, as it does not impart grace or change the elements into His body and blood.

The understanding that the Lord's Table is not a sacrament is rooted in the Biblical account where Christ instructs His followers to do this in remembrance of Him. The elements do not transform into His actual body and blood; instead, they symbolize His sacrifice. This act serves as a memorial rather than a means of grace, affirming that our salvation is fully accomplished through Christ's work alone, not through any ritual. Therefore, the focus is on remembrance and faith in Christ's redemptive work rather than the physical act itself conferring grace.
