According to Jesus-- as an expert witness in all matters pertaining to
Christianity --when people correctly eat his flesh, and correctly drink his
blood; they obtain eternal life on the spot: no delay, and no waiting period
because the verb "has" in the verse below is present tense rather than
future.
● John 6:54 . . Whoever eats my flesh and drinks my blood has eternal life
One of the advantages of eternal life is resilience: it never wears out, never
wears down, never gets old, and never dies, i.e. eternal life is immune to
death.
That being the case, then it's necessary for Christ's diners to eat his flesh
and drink his blood only one time and one time only-- never again because
eternal life doesn't need to be replenished.
Speaking with the woman at the well, Jesus said:
"People soon become thirsty again after drinking this water. But the water I
give them takes away thirst altogether. It becomes a perpetual spring within
them, giving them eternal life." (John 4:13-14)

When I started this topic I didnt think it would be so contested. For me communion is a personal time between me and the Lord and I do consider using leven bread a sin even tho it is symbolic. Because of the Passover unleavened bread would have been used but also signifies his sinless body. So I do this in rememnbrance of Him
1 Cor 11: 26 For as often as you eat this bread and drink the cup, you proclaim the Lord’s death until he comes.
27 Whoever, therefore, eats the bread or drinks the cup of the Lord in an unworthy manner will be guilty of profaning the body and blood of the Lord. 28 Let a man examine himself, and so eat of the bread and drink of the cup. 29 For any one who eats and drinks without discerning the body eats and drinks judgment upon himself. 30 That is why many of you are weak and ill, and some have died
