When you come together

When you come together 1 Corinthians 11:17-34

  • There’s a possibility that being part of a church could leave us worse off rather than better.

REPENT OF SELF-CENTEREDNESS

  • In the light of Christ's selfless sacrifice, we may find the strength to emerge from the blanket of selfishness.

  • A continual self-centered attitude is, in truth, a reflection of our disregard for Christ and the Church of God.

REMEMBER HIS SUFFERINGS

  • If we fail to remember both how and why the Lord endured suffering, we partake in communion in an unworthy manner.

  • The Lord's Supper is a time to remember Christ's death while honestly repenting, reconciling, and surrendering in the light of His sufferings.

RE-EXAMINE OUR LOVE

  • Communion is about both our relationship with the Lord and our connection with our fellow believers.

  • Weakness, sickness, and death may serve as Divine discipline for partaking in communion unworthily.
