Warning Against Unworthy Participation

1 Corinthians 11:27-34

Wherefore, whosoeuer shall eate this bread, and drinke the cup of the Lord vnworthily, shall be guiltie of the body and blood of the Lord.

Let euery man therefore examine himselfe, and so let him eate of this bread, and drinke of this cup.

For he that eateth and drinketh vnworthily, eateth and drinketh his owne damnation, because he discerneth not the Lords body.

For this cause many are weake, and sicke among you, and many sleepe.

For if we would iudge our selues, we should not be iudged.

But when we are iudged, we are chastened of the Lord, because we should not be condemned with the world.

Wherefore, my brethren, when ye come together to eate, tary one for another.

And if any man be hungry, let him eate at home, that ye come not together vnto condemnation. Other things will I set in order when I come.
