Who is eligible to partake in the Lord's Supper?

Answered in 1 source

Only believers in Christ are eligible to partake in the Lord's Supper, as it is meant to symbolize their faith and union with Him.

The Lord's Supper is intended for believers, as it symbolizes a shared faith in Christ's sacrifice and His new covenant with humanity. 1 Corinthians 11:27-29 serves as a warning that partaking unworthily can lead to judgment, emphasizing the need for self-examination. This reflects the notion that one must acknowledge their faith in Christ to truly partake in this ordinance meaningfully. It is not a ritual for the unregenerate but a sacred act for those who confess their need for a Savior and celebrate His grace.
