* But enjoining this , I do not praise you , because you come together not for the better , but for the worse . * Indeed , first , I hear divisions to be among you when you come together in the church . And I believe some part . * For there must also be heresies among you , so that the approved ones may become revealed among you . * Then you coming together into one place , it is not to eat the Lord 's supper . * For each one takes his own supper first in the eating ; and one is hungry , and another drunken . * For do you not have houses to eat and to drink ? Or do you despise the church of God , and shame those who have not ? What do I say to you ? Shall I praise you for this ? I do not praise . * For I received from the Lord what I also delivered to you , that the Lord Jesus in the night in which He was betrayed took bread ; * and giving thanks , He broke and said , Take , eat ; this is My body which is broken on behalf of you ; this do in remembrance of Me . * In the same way the cup also , after supping , saying , This cup is the New Covenant in My blood ; as often as you drink , do this in remembrance of Me . See Luke strkjv @22:19 , 20 * For as often as you may eat this bread , and drink this cup , you solemnly proclaim the death of the Lord , until He shall come . * So that whoever should eat this bread , or drink the cup of the Lord , unworthily , that one will be guilty of the body and of the blood of the Lord . * But let a man examine himself , and so let him eat of the bread , and let him drink of the cup ; * for he eating and drinking unworthily eats and drinks judgment to himself , not discerning the body of the Lord . * For this reason many among you are weak and feeble , and many sleep . * For if we discerned ourselves , we would not be judged . * But being judged , we are corrected by the Lord , that we not be condemned with the world . * So that , my brothers , coming together to eat , wait for one another . * But if anyone is hungry , let him eat at home , that you may not come together for judgment . And the other things I will set in order whenever I come .
