1 Corinthians 11:28-34

28That is why you should examine yourself before eating the bread and drinking the cup.

29For if you eat the bread or drink the cup without honoring the body of Christ, you are eating and drinking God’s judgment upon yourself.

30That is why many of you are weak and sick and some have even died.

31But if we would examine ourselves, we would not be judged by God in this way.

32Yet when we are judged by the Lord, we are being disciplined so that we will not be condemned along with the world.

33So, my dear brothers and sisters, when you gather for the Lord’s Supper, wait for each other.

34If you are really hungry, eat at home so you won’t bring judgment upon yourselves when you meet together. I’ll give you instructions about the other matters after I arrive.
