1 Corinthians 11:17-21

Twentieth_Century(i) 17 In giving directions on the next subject, I cannot praise you; because your meetings do more harm than good. 18 To begin with, I hear you and, to some extent, I believe it. 19 Indeed, there must be actual parties among you, for so only will the men of real worth become known. 20 When you meet together, as I understand, it is not possible to eat the Lord's Supper; 21 For, as you eat, each of you tries to secure his own supper first, with the result that one has too little to eat, and another has too much to drink!
