Among whom is Communion available?

• A. Nonbelievers
• B. Pastors
• C. Believers
• D. Children

Answer: (C)

Communion is the sacred meal for those who have placed their faith in Christ and entered into a relationship with Him through belief. It commemorates Christ’s sacrifice and expresses fellowship with Him and with the body of believers, so it centers on faith in Jesus rather than on any particular role or age. Because the meal represents trust in the gospel, those who do not profess faith or who have not joined Christ’s covenant should not partake. While pastors may lead or serve in the observance, the practice isn’t limited to them; it belongs to believers—the people of God who are living in faith. Some churches allow children to participate once they have faith, but the essential criterion is belief in Jesus, which is why believers is the best answer.
