Holy Communion is Medicine, Comfort, and Bounty

John Calvin,
“Let us remember that this sacred feast is medicine to the sick,
comfort to the sinner,
and bounty to the poor.

If you came based on being healthy, righteous, and rich it would be of no value. Thus, the best and only worthiness which we can bring to God is to offer him our own vileness and unworthiness, that his mercy may make us worthy; to despond in ourselves that we may be consoled in him; to humble ourselves that we may be elevated; to accuse ourselves that we may be justified by him.”
