1 Corinthians 11:27 Context
25After the same manner also hee tooke the cup when he had supped, saying, This cup is the new Testament in my blood: this do ye, as oft as ye drinke it, in remembrance of me. 26For as often as ye eate this bread, and drinke this cup, yee doe shew the Lords death till he come. 27Wherefore, whosoeuer shall eate this bread, and drinke this cup of the Lord vnworthily, shall be guilty of the body and blood of the Lord. 28But let a man examine himselfe, and so let him eate of that bread, and drinke of that cup. 29For hee that eateth and drinketh vnworthily, eateth and drinketh damnation to himselfe, not discerning the Lords body.
