Question: Are there instances when a person receiving Holy Communion does not receive the grace it gives (i.e. someone who has committed mortal sin and has no remorse)?
God’s answer:
Whoever eats my flesh and drinks my blood has eternal
life, and I will raise him on the last day.
(John 6:54)
Meaning: Here God is stating that whenever a person partakes of Holy Communion, regardless of their state or disposition, they receive the graces. There are no exclusions. The grace of peace/healing is received by anyone and everyone.
Question: Can you confirm your answer please?
God’s answer:
Question: In 1 Corinthians 11:26-29, Saint Paul said:
“Whenever you eat this bread, then, and drink this cup, you are proclaiming the Lord's death until he comes. Therefore anyone who eats the bread or drinks the cup of the Lord unworthily is answerable for the body and blood of the Lord. Everyone is to examine himself and only then eat of the bread or drink from the cup; because a person who eats and drinks without recognizing the body is eating and drinking his own condemnation. There are no exclusions. The grace of healing is received by anyone and everyone.”
