But let a man examine himself, and so let him eat of that bread, and drink of that cup. 1 Cor 11:28
Christ our savior has made it clear that those who partake unworthily of his body and blood are in grave spiritual danger. Since Jesus said, “Except ye eat the flesh of the Son of man, and drink his blood, ye have no life in you,” we must conclude that there is an avenue to worthiness. He stated his doctrine three times in 3 Nephi: “Ye must repent and be baptized in my name, and become as a little child.”
If we will spend time this coming week in fasting and prayer, repenting of our sins and relying on Him, then the Lord will prepare us to come together next Sunday with a broken heart and contrite spirit, that we may partake worthily of the bread and the cup.
