1Corinthians:11:17-34




isv@1Corinthians:11:17 @ Now I am not praising you in giving you the following instructions. When you gather, it is not for the better but for the worse.

isv@1Corinthians:11:18 @ For in the first place, I hear that when you gather as a church there are divisions among you, and I partly believe it.

isv@1Corinthians:11:19 @ Of course, there must be factions among you to show which of you are genuine!

isv@1Corinthians:11:20 @ When you gather in the same place, it is not to eat the Lord's Supper.

isv@1Corinthians:11:21 @ For as you eat, each of you rushes to eat his own supper, and one person goes hungry while another gets drunk.

isv@1Corinthians:11:22 @ You have homes in which to eat and drink, don't you? Or do you despise God's church and humiliate those who have nothing? What should I say to you? Should I praise you? I will not praise you for this!

isv@1Corinthians:11:23 @ For I received from the Lord what I also passed on to you—how the Lord Jesus, on the night he was betrayed, took a loaf of bread,

isv@1Corinthians:11:24 @ gave thanks for it, and broke it in pieces, saying,“This is my body that isfor you. Keep doing this in memory of me.”

isv@1Corinthians:11:25 @ He did the same with the cup after the supper, saying,“This cup is the new covenant in my blood. As often as you drink from it, keep doing this in memory of me.”

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

isv@1Corinthians:11:27 @ Therefore, whoever eats the bread or drinks from the cup in an unworthy manner will be held responsible for the Lord's body and blood.

isv@1Corinthians:11:28 @ A person must examine himself and then eat the bread and drink from the cup.

isv@1Corinthians:11:29 @ For the one who eats and drinks without recognizing the body eats and drinks judgment on himself.

isv@1Corinthians:11:30 @ That's why so many of you are weak and sick and a considerable number are dying.

isv@1Corinthians:11:31 @ But if we judged ourselves correctly, we would not be judged.

isv@1Corinthians:11:32 @ Now, while we are being judged by the Lord, we are being disciplined lest we be condemned along with the world.

isv@1Corinthians:11:33 @ Therefore, my brothers, when you gather to eat, wait for each other.

isv@1Corinthians:11:34 @ If anyone is hungry, he should eat at home, so that when you gather it may not bring judgment on you. And when I come I will give instructions concerning the other matters.
