rkjnt - 1Corinthians:11:17-34

rkjnt@1Corinthians:11:17 @ Now in the following instructions I do not praise you, for you come together not for the better, but for the worse.

rkjnt@1Corinthians:11:18 @ For, first of all, when you come together as the church, I hear that there are divisions among you; and I partly believe it.

rkjnt@1Corinthians:11:19 @ For there must be factions among you, so that those who are approved may be made evident among you.

rkjnt@1Corinthians:11:20 @ When you come together in one place, it is not to eat the Lord's supper.

rkjnt@1Corinthians:11:21 @ For in eating every one goes ahead with his own supper: and one is hungry, and another is drunken.

rkjnt@1Corinthians:11:22 @ What? do you not have houses in which to eat and to drink? or do you despise the church of God, and shame those who have nothing? What shall I say to you? shall I praise you in this? I will not.

rkjnt@1Corinthians:11:23 @ For I have received from the Lord that which I also delivered to you, That the Lord Jesus, on the night he was betrayed, took bread:

rkjnt@1Corinthians:11:24 @ And when he had given thanks, he broke it, and said, This is my body, which is for you: do this in remembrance of me.

rkjnt@1Corinthians:11:25 @ In the same manner he took the cup, after supper, saying, This cup is the new covenant in my blood: do this, as often as you drink it, in remembrance of me.

rkjnt@1Corinthians:11:26 @ For as often as you eat this bread, and drink this cup, you proclaim the Lord's death until he comes.

rkjnt@1Corinthians:11:27 @ Therefore, whoever shall eat this bread, and drink this cup of the Lord, unworthily, shall be guilty of profaning the body and blood of the Lord.

rkjnt@1Corinthians:11:28 @ Let a man examine himself before he eats of the bread, and drinks of the cup.

rkjnt@1Corinthians:11:29 @ For he who eats and drinks unworthily, not discerning the Lord's body, eats and drinks judgement upon himself.

rkjnt@1Corinthians:11:30 @ For this reason many are weak and sickly among you, and many sleep.

rkjnt@1Corinthians:11:31 @ For if we would judge ourselves, we should not be judged.

rkjnt@1Corinthians:11:32 @ But when we are judged, we are chastened by the Lord, that we should not be condemned with the world.

rkjnt@1Corinthians:11:33 @ Therefore, my brethren, when you come together to eat, wait for one another.

rkjnt@1Corinthians:11:34 @ And if any man is hungry, let him eat at home; so you do not come together to be condemned. And the rest I will set in order when I come.
