We believe that the Lord’s Supper is an act of obedience and a testimony of personal faith. It symbolically memorializes the death of Jesus Christ. Self-examination and confession of sins should precede participation in the Lord’s Supper. Every born again believer is invited to participate in the Lord’s Supper.
The Baptist Faith and Message puts it this way:
The Lord’s Supper is a symbolic act of obedience whereby members of the church, through partaking of the bread and the fruit of the vine, memorialize the death of the Redeemer and anticipate His second coming.
Matthew 3:13-17; 26:26-30; 28:19-20; Mark 1:9-11; 14:22-26; Luke 3:21-22; 22:19-20; John 3:23; Acts 2:41-42; 8:35-39; 16:30-33; 20:7; Romans 6:3-5; 1 Corinthians 10:16,21; 11:23-29; Colossians 2:12

It’s a straightforward look at core Christian beliefs about the incarnation of Christ, His atoning sacrifice, and the importance of observing the Lord’s Supper with reverence.
