18For first of all, when ye come together in the church, I hear that there be divisions among you; and I partly believe it.Select 1 Corinthians 11:18
19For there must be also heresies among you, that they which are approved may be made manifest among you.Select 1 Corinthians 11:19
20When ye come together therefore into one place, this is not to eat the Lord’s supper.Select 1 Corinthians 11:20
21For in eating every one taketh before other his own supper: and one is hungry, and another is drunken.Select 1 Corinthians 11:21
22What? have ye not houses to eat and to drink in? or despise ye the church of God, and shame them that have not? What shall I say to you? shall I praise you in this? I praise you not.Select 1 Corinthians 11:22
23For I have received of the Lord that which also I delivered unto you, That the Lord Jesus the same night in which he was betrayed took bread:Select 1 Corinthians 11:23
24And when he had given thanks, he brake it, and said, Take, eat: this is my body, which is broken for you: this do in remembrance of me.Select 1 Corinthians 11:24
25After the same manner also he took the cup, when he had supped, saying, This cup is the new testament in my blood: this do ye, as oft as ye drink it, in remembrance of me.Select 1 Corinthians 11:25
26For as often as ye eat this bread, and drink this cup, ye do shew the Lord’s death till he come.Select 1 Corinthians 11:26
27Wherefore whosoever shall eat this bread, and drink this cup of the Lord, unworthily, shall be guilty of the body and blood of the Lord.Select 1 Corinthians 11:27
28But let a man examine himself, and so let him eat of that bread, and drink of that cup.Select 1 Corinthians 11:28
