For as often as you eat this bread and drink the cup, you proclaim the Lord's death until he comes . . . But a man must examine himself, and in so doing he is to eat of the bread and drink of the cup (1 Corinthians 11: 26 &28)).
Taking communion is a proclamation of faith. Taking communion is a proclamation of belief in Jesus Christ the Son of God. Taking communion is a proclamation of the truth that Jesus Christ died on the cross for our sins, He was buried and rose from the grave. Taking communion is a proclamation of our faith that Jesus Christ is coming again. Taking communion is a proclamation of our faith in Christ, that He is our righteousness in the Day of Judgment.
Communion is a backward look at what Jesus has done for us. Communion is an honest and inward look at our personal lives, recognizing our sinfulness. Communion is a forward look to the return of Christ. Why would taking communion ever become a common thing?
Our Father's Love,
Tom
