Why is unity important in the church during Communion?

Answered in 1 source

Unity is crucial during Communion to reflect the oneness of the body of Christ and to avoid divisions among believers.

In 1 Corinthians 11:17-20, the Apostle Paul addresses divisions within the church that disrupt the spirit of the Communion service. Unity among believers is essential because it exemplifies the reconciliation that Christ has achieved for His people. Partaking in the Lord's Supper while harboring divisions undermines the very nature of the meal, which is meant to represent the body of Christ, broken for a unified people. Thus, maintaining harmony and love within the church is critical as we prepare to approach the table, lest we bring judgment upon ourselves as a consequence of disunity.
