Communion is a Sacrament in which the believer, under the guise of bread and wine, tasting the very Body and Blood of Christ, is mysteriously united with Christ and receives a guarantee of eternal life.

This sacrament was established by Jesus Christ himself at the Last Supper (Matthew 26:26-29, Mark 14:22-25, Luke 22:19-21).

Communion is necessary for every Christian to be saved. Jesus Christ speaks clearly about this: truly, truly, I say to you, unless you eat the flesh of the Son of man and drink His blood, you will not have life in you (John 6:53).

Those who wish to begin the Sacrament of Holy Communion must prepare for this by fasting and prayer and cleanse their conscience of sins by the Sacrament of repentance.

He who eats My flesh and drinks My blood has eternal life, and abides in Me and I in him, said the Lord (John 6:54, 56).
