Bible Verses About Eucharist

The cup of the blessing that we bless--is it not the fellowship of the blood of the Christ? the bread that we break--is it not the fellowship of the body of the Christ?

because one bread, one body, are we the many--for we all of the one bread do partake.

Ye are not able the cup of the Lord to drink, and the cup of demons; ye are not able of the table of the Lord to partake, and of the table of demons;

do we arouse the Lord to jealousy? are we stronger than He?

ye, then, coming together at the same place--it is not to eat the Lord's supper;

for each his own supper doth take before in the eating, and one is hungry, and another is drunk;

why, have ye not houses to eat and to drink in? or the assembly of God do ye despise, and shame those not having? what may I say to you? shall I praise you in this? I do not praise!

For I--I received from the Lord that which also I did deliver to you, that the Lord Jesus in the night in which he was delivered up, took bread,

and having given thanks, he brake, and said, `Take ye, eat ye, this is my body, that for you is being broken; this do ye--to the remembrance of me.'

In like manner also the cup after the supping, saying, `This cup is the new covenant in my blood; this do ye, as often as ye may drink it --to the remembrance of me;'

for as often as ye may eat this bread, and this cup may drink, the death of the Lord ye do shew forth--till he may come;

so that whoever may eat this bread or may drink the cup of the Lord unworthily, guilty he shall be of the body and blood of the Lord:

and let a man be proving himself, and so of the bread let him eat, and of the cup let him drink;

for he who is eating and drinking unworthily, judgment to himself he doth eat and drink--not discerning the body of the Lord.

Because of this, among you many are weak and sickly, and sleep do many;

for if ourselves we were discerning, we would not be being judged,

and being judged by the Lord, we are chastened, that with the world we may not be condemned;

so then, my brethren, coming together to eat, for one another wait ye;

and if any one is hungry, at home let him eat, that to judgment ye may not come together; and the rest, whenever I may come, I shall arrange.
