Again, when you meet together, there is no true eating of the Lord's Supper; for each one of you begins to eat his own supper; one goes hungry, while another gets drunk. What! Have you no houses in which to eat or drink? or do you wish to show your contempt for the church of God, and to shame those who have no homes to eat in? What shall I say to you? Shall I praise you?

For I passed on to you the account, which I myself received from the Lord; how the Lord Jesus, on the very night he was betrayed, took bread, and when he had given thanks, he broke it, saying, "This is my body, broken for you; this do in memory of me." In the same way also, he took the cup after supper, saying. "This cup is the new covenant in my blood; do this, whenever you drink it, in memory of me." For as often as you eat this bread and drink this cup, you are proclaiming your Lord's death until he come. So he that eats the bread or drinks the cup of the Lord unworthy must answer for a sin against the body and blood of the Lord. Let each man scrutinize himself, and thus let him eat of the bread and drink of the cup. For whoever eats and drinks without discerning the body, eats and drinks condemnation to himself.

If any one is hungry, let him eat at home, so that your meetings do not bring condemnation upon you. The other matters I will adjust when I come.
