What are the requirements to take the Lord's Supper?

Answered in 1 source

The primary requirement to take the Lord's Supper is to be a believer in Christ, recognizing Him as your Savior.

Participation in the Lord's Supper is open to those who believe the gospel — that Christ's death and resurrection secure salvation for sinners. As outlined in 1 Corinthians 11:28, each person should examine themselves for faith and belief in Christ rather than for personal worthiness based on works. This indicates that the Lord's Supper is for sinners who rely solely on Christ’s righteousness for acceptance before God. While baptism is important and should follow belief, it is not a prerequisite for partaking in the Supper, highlighting the grace-centered approach of this ordinance.
