—1 Corinthians 11:27-34

Paul stressed here the importance of self-examination. As we saw in the previous passage, communion is not to be taken lightly. It is an acknowledgement of the death and resurrection of our Savior, Jesus Christ. How is one supposed to remember the Savior and one’s need for the Savior if one does not first recognize one’s own sin? Without self-reflection and the admittance of sin, the Lord’s Supper simply becomes a snack within the walls of a sanctuary. Search your heart and allow your Savior to have His way in you.
