Communion

In 1 Corinthians 11, we see Paul rebuking the Corinthian church for taking communion in an unworthy manner. They were guilty of prioritizing the Greek culture in which they were comfortable and trying to fit the gospel in as an afterthought, at the expense of the weak and powerless in their midst. When we take communion, let us make sure we do not commit the same sin. Let us examine our hearts—not in our own strength and introspection—but through fixing our eyes on Jesus so that we may become like Him; it's His body and blood that redeem us.
