1 Corinthians 11 — Context

For a man puts himself in danger, if he takes part in the holy meal without being conscious that it is the Lord's body.

For this cause a number of you are feeble and ill, and a number are dead.

But if we were true judges of ourselves, punishment would not come on us.

But if punishment does come, it is sent by the Lord, so that we may be safe when the world is judged.

So then, my brothers, when you come together to the holy meal of the Lord, let there be waiting for one another.

If any man is in need of food, let him take his meal in his house; so that you may not come together to your damage. And the rest I will put in order when I come.
