“For first of all, when ye come together in the church, I hear that there be divisions among you; and I partly believe it.”

Verse in context — 1 Corinthians 11

But if any man seem to be contentious, we have no such custom, neither the churches of God.

Now in this that I declare [unto you] I praise [you] not, that ye come together not for the better, but for the worse.

For first of all, when ye come together in the church, I hear that there be divisions among you; and I partly believe it.

For there must be also heresies among you, that they which are approved may be made manifest among you.

When ye come together therefore into one place, [this] is not to eat the Lord's supper.
