1 Corinthians 11:28

“But let a man examine himself, and so let him eat of the bread, and drink of the cup.”

Verse in context — 1 Corinthians 11

For as often as you eat this bread and drink this cup, you proclaim the Lord's death until he comes.

Therefore whoever eats this bread or drinks the Lord's cup in a way unworthy of the Lord will be guilty of the body and the blood of the Lord.

But let a man examine himself, and so let him eat of the bread, and drink of the cup.

For he who eats and drinks in an unworthy way eats and drinks judgment to himself, if he doesn't discern the Lord's body.

For this cause many among you are weak and sickly, and not a few sleep.
