Before we celebrate the Lord's Supper, we traditionally (in the CRC) use the previous Sunday to prepare to partake of the sacrament. Why do we need to prepare? What sort of preparation? The main passage referring to this preparation is 1 Corinthians 11. In the context of the abuse of the Lord's Supper going on in the Corinthian church, Paul explains the need for self-examination and intentional preparation.
Scripture: I Corinthians 11:17-34
