“The
Lord’s Supper is not for all indiscriminately as the gospel is. The Lord’s
Supper is chiefly commemoration and communion. It is for those who discern the
Lord’s body, who can commemorate his death in faith and love. And since the
supper is also Communion it is obviously for those who commune with Christ and
with one another in the unity of the body which is the church…. It is part of
the whole counsel of God that those conditions be clearly and insistently set
forth, to the end that those who are eligible partake and those who are not
refrain.” -- John Murray, Collected Writings
