What does it mean to eat and drink unworthily during communion?

Answered in 1 source

To eat and drink unworthily means to partake without genuine faith in Christ.

In 1 Corinthians 11:27-29, eating and drinking unworthily refers to the absence of faith in the participant's heart. This passage emphasizes that believers should approach the Lord's Supper with a clear understanding and discernment of Christ's body and work. An unexamined heart, one that does not express true belief in Christ as Savior, leads to spiritual danger. This warning serves as a reminder to all Christians that communion should be entered into with a sincere faith and an acknowledgment of the significance of what it represents.
