1 Corinthians 11:17-34 (ESV)17But in the following
instructions I do not commend you, because
when you come together it is not for the better but for the worse. 18For, in the first
place, when you come together as a church, I hear
that there are divisions among you. And I believe it
in part,

1 Corinthians 11:17-34 (ESV)19for there must be factions
among you in order that those who are genuine among you may be recognized. 20When you come together, it is not the Lord's supper that you
eat. 21For in eating, each one goes ahead with his own meal. One goes hungry,
another gets drunk.

1 Corinthians 11:17-34 (ESV)22What! Do you not have
houses to eat and drink in? Or do you despise the church of God and humiliate those who
have nothing? What shall I say to you? Shall I commend you in
this? No, I will not. 23For Ireceived from the Lord what I also delivered to you, that the

1 Corinthians 11:17-34 (ESV)Lord Jesus on the night when
he was betrayed took bread, 24and when he had given
thanks, he broke it, and said, “This is my body which is for
you. Do this in remembrance of me.” 25In the same way also he
took the cup, after supper, saying, “This cup is the new covenant in
my blood.

1 Corinthians 11:17-34 (ESV)Do this, as often as you drink
it, in remembrance of me.” 26For as often as you eat this bread and drink the cup, you
proclaim the Lord's death until he comes.
27Whoever, therefore, eats the bread or drinks the cup of
the Lord in an unworthy
manner will be guilty concerning

1 Corinthians 11:17-34 (ESV)the body and blood of the Lord.
28Let a person examine himself, then, and so eat of the
bread and drink of the cup. 29For anyone who eats and
drinks without discerning the body eats and drinks judgment
on himself. 30That is why many
of you are weak and ill, and
some have died. 31But if
we judged ourselves

1 Corinthians 11:17-34 (ESV)truly, we would not be judged.
32But when we are judged by the Lord, we are disciplined so
that we may not be condemned along with the
world. 33So then, my brothers, when you come
together to eat, wait for one another—

1 Corinthians 11:17-34 (ESV)
34if anyone is hungry, let him eat at home—so that when you come together
it will not be for judgment. About the
other things I will give directions when I come.
