The word “Unworthily” as used in the passage is the Greek Word “anaxiōs” which means;•To eat and drink the communion in an unworthy manner or a manner that is not deserving of your respect and attention.•To eat and drink the communion irreverently or without any sense of sacredness or holiness.How to Eat the Body and Drink the Blood Unworthily?Treating the Holy Communion as Ordinary, Common or as a RitualMany believers approach the Holy Communion as a religious routine or ritual rather than a sacred participation in Christ.—They take the bread and cup casually;—They have no reverence in their hearts for the sacrifice of Christ;—They eat and drink without remembering Christ or worshipping Him in their hearts.The Holy Communion represents the broken body and shed blood of Christ. When this is ignored, the Body is not discerned.Be blessed as you listen to this thought provoking and challenging teaching from our father!
