Warning Against Unworthy Participation
1 Corinthians 11:27-34
27
Therefore, whoever eats the Lord’s bread or drinks the Lord’s cup in an unworthy manner will be guilty of desecrating the body and blood of the Lord!
28
So let a person examine himself first, and then he may eat of the bread and drink from the cup;
29
for a person who eats and drinks without recognizing the body eats and drinks judgment upon himself.
30
This is why many among you are weak and sick, and some have died!
31
If we would examine ourselves, we would not come under judgment.
32
But when we are judged by the Lord, we are being disciplined, so that we will not be condemned along with the world.
33
So then, my brothers, when you gather together to eat, wait for one another.
34
If someone is hungry, he should eat at home, so that when you meet together it will not result in judgment.
As for the other matters, I will instruct you about them when I come.
