What elements are used in the Lord's Table?

Answered in 1 source

The elements used in the Lord's Table are unleavened bread and wine, representing the body and blood of Christ.

In the observance of the Lord's Table, two key elements are utilized: unleavened bread and wine. The unleavened bread symbolizes the sinlessness of Christ, as leaven is a biblical metaphor for sin. This bread is a picture of Christ’s body, which was broken for believers. The wine represents Christ's blood, shed for the forgiveness of sins. It is important to note that, unlike many modern practices, the wine should be fermented to accurately reflect the purity and sanctity of Christ’s blood. By taking both elements, believers acknowledge their faith in the redemptive sacrifice and the new covenant.
