Part 10

46:011:014 Doth not even nature itself teach you, that, if a man have long hair, it is a shame unto him?

46:011:015 But if a woman have long hair, it is a glory to her: for her hair is given her for a covering.

46:011:016 But if any man seem to be contentious, we have no such custom, neither the churches of God.

46:011:017 Now in this that I declare unto you I praise you not, that ye come together not for the better, but for the worse.

46:011:018 For first of all, when ye come together in the church, I hear that there be divisions among you; and I partly believe it.

46:011:019 For there must be also heresies among you, that they which are approved may be made manifest among you.

46:011:020 When ye come together therefore into one place, this is not to eat the Lord's supper.

46:011:021 For in eating every one taketh before other his own supper: and one is hungry, and another is drunken.

46:011:022 What? have ye not houses to eat and to drink in? or despise ye the church of God, and shame them that have not? What shall I say to you? shall I praise you in this? I praise you not.

46:011:023 For I have received of the Lord that which also I delivered unto you, That the Lord Jesus the same night in which he was betrayed took bread:

46:011:024 And when he had given thanks, he brake it, and said, Take, eat: this is my body, which is broken for you: this do in remembrance of me.

46:011:025 After the same manner also he took the cup, when he had supped, saying, This cup is the new testament in my blood: this do ye, as oft as ye drink it, in remembrance of me.

46:011:026 For as often as ye eat this bread, and drink this cup, ye do shew the Lord's death till he come.

46:011:027 Wherefore whosoever shall eat this bread, and drink this cup of the Lord, unworthily, shall be guilty of the body and blood of the Lord.

46:011:028 But let a man examine himself, and so let him eat of that bread, and drink of that cup.

46:011:029 For he that eateth and drinketh unworthily, eateth and drinketh damnation to himself, not discerning the Lord's body.

46:011:030 For this cause many are weak and sickly among you, and many sleep.

46:011:031 For if we would judge ourselves, we should not be judged.

46:011:032 But when we are judged, we are chastened of the Lord, that we should not be condemned with the world.

46:011:033 Wherefore, my brethren, when ye come together to eat, tarry one for another.

46:011:034 And if any man hunger, let him eat at home; that ye come not together unto condemnation. And the rest will I set in order when I come.

46:012:001 Now concerning spiritual gifts, brethren, I would not have you ignorant.

46:012:002 Ye know that ye were Gentiles, carried away unto these dumb idols, even as ye were led.

46:012:003 Wherefore I give you to understand, that no man speaking by the Spirit of God calleth Jesus accursed: and that no man can say that Jesus is the Lord, but by the Holy Ghost.

46:012:004 Now there are diversities of gifts, but the same Spirit.

46:012:005 And there are differences of administrations, but the same Lord.

46:012:006 And there are diversities of operations, but it is the same God which worketh all in all.

46:012:007 But the manifestation of the Spirit is given to every man to profit withal.
