It is all well and good that we remember Jesus’ suffering on the cross, and his purchase of his church. But here are omissions that I notice from various groups. Some forego the drinking. Some omit Luke 22:28-30.

28 “You are those who have stayed with me w in my trials, 29 and x I assign to you, as my Father assigned to me, a kingdom, 30 [†] y that you may eat and drink at my table in my kingdom and z sit on thrones judging a the twelve tribes of Israel.

Still others omit 1 Corinthians 12:32.

27 [†] a Whoever, therefore, eats the bread or drinks the cup of the Lord b in an unworthy manner will be guilty concerning c the body and blood of the Lord. 28 d Let a person examine himself, then, and so eat of the bread and drink of the cup. 29 [†] For anyone who eats and drinks without discerning the body eats and drinks judgment on himself. 30 That is why many of you are weak and ill, and some e have died. [8] 31 [†] f But if we judged [9] ourselves truly, we would not be judged. 32 [†] But when we are judged by the Lord, g we are disciplined [10] so that we may not be h condemned along with the world.

The latter 2 serve as major incentives to draw near and dine with our Lord, and omitting them may let fears and reservations fester.

2 Corinthians 13:5 Hebrews 11:1 2 Peter 1:10 We are saved by faith through grace, by things hoped for and promised that we have not yet seen, faith is an unseen hope. Faith in the message of the gospel which is the instructions on how to realize salvation. Too many people confuse conversation with salvation. Conversion is only the beginning of our spiritual journey on that straight and narrow way and salvation is at the end of that journey. We are to examine our spiritual condition to prove all things that we believe so as to be worthy to eat the bread and drink the cup. We are unworthy if our doctrine is not what Jesus and the Apostles preached or if we are not living our lives now in accordance with that doctrine. If we do have errors we must root them out by prayer, study and meditation in a manner as David did with his secret faults, Psalm 19:12-14 , remember David was a man after Gods own heart. All this is connected to, Luke 13:3 , we must desire with joy the correction of Yahweh. We do not quench or grieve Gods Holy Spirit. When I had the revelation of the one true God given to me, I repented and asked forgiveness because beforehand I was worshiping an idol and committing blasphemy. As Paul did his evil against the church in ignorance so I did in my circumstance. Ephesians 6:13 Luke 21:36
God will rebuke and chasen those He loves otherwise we are bastards and not sons.
