# Holy Communion This document discusses the concept of Holy Communion, including its meaning, misunderstandings, and relevant passages from the Bible. **Real Presence:** The text mentions that the "Real Presence" means Jesus' body and blood is truly present in communion. **Misunderstandings/Questions:** The document asks questions about the sacrament and misunderstandings regarding it, such as who administers it and when it's celebrated. **Key Passage (1 Corinthians 11:23-29):** The document highlights a key passage from 1 Corinthians which describes the institution of the Eucharist/Holy Communion: * The Lord Jesus, on the night he was betrayed, took bread and, after giving thanks, broke it, saying, "This is my body, which is for you; do this in remembrance of me." * Similarly, after supper, he took the cup and said, "This cup is the new covenant in my blood; do this, whenever you drink it, in remembrance of me." * Whenever you eat this bread and drink this cup, you proclaim the Lord's death until he comes. * Whoever eats the bread or drinks the cup of the Lord in an unworthy manner will be guilty of sinning against the body and blood of the Lord. * A man ought to examine himself before he eats of the bread and drinks of the cup. * Anyone who eats and drinks without recognizing the body of the Lord eats and drinks judgment on himself. **Additional Notes:** * The document includes terms like "Corpus Christi Day" and "methods of distribution," suggesting further discussion points about aspects of administering the sacrament. * There is a mention of "words of institution," likely referring to the words the Lord used to institute the Eucharist.
