I Corinthians 11:17-22
\nThe Lord’s Supper \u2013 Part 1<\/b><\/span><\/p>\n

Today, 05\/18\/2023, let us, together in the grace of God, rejoice and reflect on the Word of God in I Corinthians 11:17-22.<\/span><\/p>\n

17 Now in this that I declare unto you I praise you not, that ye come together not for the better, but for the worse.<\/i><\/span><\/p>\n

18 For first of all, when ye come together in the church, I hear that there be divisions among you; and I partly believe it.<\/i><\/span><\/p>\n

19 For there must be also heresies among you, that they which are approved may be made manifest among you.<\/i><\/span><\/p>\n

20 When ye come together therefore into one place, this is not to eat the Lord’s supper.<\/i><\/span><\/p>\n

21 For in eating every one taketh before other his own supper: and one is hungry, and another is drunken.<\/i><\/span><\/p>\n

22 What? 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.<\/i><\/span><\/p>\n
