I Corinthians 11:28-29, "28 But let a man examine himself, and so let him eat of the bread and drink of the cup. 29 For he who eats and drinks in an unworthy manner eats and drinks judgment to himself, not discerning the Lord’s body."

Paul says that we must examine ourselves to make sure we are discerning the Lord’s Body…discerning Christ as God in His wholeness.

In our examination process, we must, as part of the Passover preparation, make certain we grasp how vastly different EVERYTHING about Jesus Christ was and is—His pre-existence as God, God in the Flesh, God in Death, God in the Resurrection, and God as He is NOW—and to make a distinction with the awe and reverence that is due!

Is there any iconology or symbology in our worship of Christ that clouds our purity in discerning Christ's body on Passover? 

If we do not discern the Lord's body, we may eat the bread and drink the wine—and still be guilty of Christ’s blood and body.
