nothing else than a denial of the one sacrifice and sufferings of Jesus Christ (Gal. 5;4), and an accursed idolatry (Deut. 27;15).

81. For whom is the Lord’s supper instituted?
For those who are truly sorrowful for their sins (1 Cor. 11;28), and yet trust that these are forgiven them for the sake of Christ; and that their remaining infirmities are covered by his passion and death (1 Cor. 11;26); and who also earnestly desire to have their faith more and more strengthened, and their lives more holy (Matt. 5;6); but hypocrites, and such as turn not to God with sincere hearts, eat and drink judgment to themselves (1 Cor. 11;29).
1 Cor. 11;28.—Let a man examine himself, and so let him eat of that bread, and drink of that cup.—Ps. 51;17.—Matt. 5;4.
