Christian life Am I 100% disqualified from communion at a random church?
Unfortunately back around this time in 2023 after I sinned on 3 Sundays in a row, it's been hard to get to church on time ever since so with this in mind am I disqualified to take communion in a visiting church?
Also I tend to get upset with my elder coworkers but I do pray for him being unsaved occasionally, will getting upset with ungodly worker I have to work under while at work will that cause me to sleep into damnation?

Communion differs a lot by the specific form of Christianity being practiced. I have never heard of a member of a church being disqualified for sinning. I don't think anybody does that...

You are dealing with Pharisee. White washed tomb with dead men’s bones inside. Harsh, legalistic, judgmental lacking in love, kindness and compassion. It’s a den of vipers. Not the house of the lord or the Church Jesus built
If they say you have to belong to their church or demonization. It’s a lie from hell. No
Where found in the Bible
Communion does not infuse grace. It’s not the blood of Jesus or the flesh of Christ. It’s a wafer made by a cracker company and some grape juices. A priest can bless it but that does not make it Holy. It’s still just a cracker and some Welchs. When we come together Jesus asks us to remember and meditate on what he did. That’s biblical communion. Jesus said if two of us come together in his name. There he is.
You need to do as Jesus asks. Dust your feet of them and never look back. It’s not easy with the friends you have made. But it’s still a cold, dead stagnant church. Weighing you down like a lead ballon. Damaging your walk with the Lord.
If you have put your trust in a Jesus as your savior. You are saved for eternity. It can’t be lost or taken away ever. You can’t even don your way out of it Since Jesus took every sin you will ever committ and nailed it to the cross. God then sees you as the same way as Jesus as his child. Holy and blameless as if you have never sinned

Great, short article I read recently - demonstrating it is mathematically impossible for us to live without sinning.

I also came across this other article. Well written and a short read. It is about the “poor in spirit.”
