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

Answered in 1 source

Only believers in Christ, who understand and have faith in His sacrifice, are qualified to partake in the Lord's Supper.

The qualifications for partaking in the Lord's Supper are centered on one's faith in Christ. According to the teachings found in 1 Corinthians 11, the ordinance is reserved for believers who can discern the significance of Christ’s body and blood. This excludes those who do not understand the implications of His sacrifice, as they are unable to engage in remembrance of it. The Lord’s Supper is thus a communion for those who share a common faith and relationship with Christ, highlighting the grace extended to sinners rather than a performance of merit or worthiness.
