1 Corinthians 11 v 17


1 Corinthians 11:17 
Now in this that I declare unto you I praise you not, that ye come together not for the better, but for the worse. 


11:17. As in the preceding discussion on womanly excesses in worship, Paul had no commendation (but cf. v. 2) for the Corinthians when it came to their practice of the Lord’s Supper. In fact an experience meant to build up the church was actually having the opposite effect: your meetings do more harm than good.
