Well like most people you seem not to really understand what righteousness is. Righteousness isn't the same thing as right living or doing right things or being right.

Righteousness is the exact nature of God that has been supplanted into the life of one who is born again. Righteousness isn't something you attain or work towards. Its a gift.

Romans 5:17 Amplified Bible (AMP)

"For if because of one man’s
trespass (lapse, offence) death
reigned through that one, much
more surely will those who receive
[God’s] overflowing grace (unmerited
favor) and the
free gift of
righteousness
[putting them into
right standing with Himself] reign as
kings in life through the one Man
Jesus Christ (the Messiah, the anointed one).

In answering your question. All you need to have to take the communion is to be a Christian. Being born again. Meaning you believe in Jesus and have confessed him as lord of your life.

The communion is an instruction from the Lord. He said we should do it as often as we can in remembrance of him.

So as a Christian you should partake and stop wondering if you are righteous or not because you are.
