Warning Against Unworthy Participation

1 Corinthians 11:27-34

Therefore, whosoever shall eat this bread, or drink the chalice of the Lord unworthily, shall be guilty of the body and of the blood of the Lord.

But let a man prove himself: and so let him eat of that bread and drink of the chalice.

For he that eateth and drinketh unworthily eateth and drinketh judgment to himself, not discerning the body of the Lord.

Therefore are there many infirm and weak among you: and many sleep.

But if we would judge ourselves, we should not be judged.

But whilst we are judged, we are chastised by the Lord, that we be not condemned with this world.

Wherefore, my brethren, when you come together to eat, wait for one another.

If any man be hungry, let him eat at home; that you come not together unto judgment. And the rest I will set in order, when I come.
