Christian
Order |
|
|
 |
1 Corinthians 11:1
|
|
Be imitators of me, just as I also am of Christ. |
|
|
|
1 Corinthians 11:2
|
|
Now I praise you because you remember me in
everything and hold firmly to the traditions, just as I delivered them to you. |
|
|
|
1 Corinthians 11:3
|
|
But I want you to understand that Christ is
the head of every man, and the man is the head of a woman, and God is the head
of Christ. |
|
|
|
1 Corinthians 11:4
|
|
Every man who has something on his head while
praying or prophesying disgraces his head. |
|
|
|
1 Corinthians 11:5
|
|
But every woman who has her head uncovered while
praying or prophesying disgraces her head, for she is one and the same as the
woman whose head is shaved. |
|
|
|
1 Corinthians 11:6
|
|
For if a woman does not cover her head, let
her also have her hair cut off; but if it is disgraceful for a woman to have her
hair cut off or her head shaved, let her cover her head. |
|
|
|
1 Corinthians 11:7
|
|
For a man ought not to have his head covered,
since he is the image and glory of God; but the woman is the glory of man. |
|
|
|
1 Corinthians 11:8
|
|
For man does not originate from woman, but woman
from man; |
|
|
|
1 Corinthians 11:9
|
|
for indeed man was not created for the woman's
sake, but woman for the man's sake. |
|
|
|
1 Corinthians 11:10
|
|
Therefore the woman ought to have a symbol of
authority on her head, because of the angels. |
|
|
|
1 Corinthians 11:11
|
|
However, in the Lord, neither is woman independent
of man, nor is man independent of woman. |
|
|
|
1 Corinthians 11:12
|
|
For as the woman originates from the man, so
also the man has his birth through the woman; and all things originate from God.
|
|
|
|
1 Corinthians 11:13
|
|
Judge for yourselves: is it proper for a woman
to pray to God with her head uncovered? |
|
|
|
1 Corinthians 11:14
|
|
Does not even nature itself teach you that if
a man has long hair, it is a dishonor to him, |
|
|
|
1 Corinthians 11:15
|
|
but if a woman has long hair, it is a glory
to her? For her hair is given to her for a covering. |
|
|
|
1 Corinthians 11:16
|
|
But if one is inclined to be contentious, we
have no other practice, nor have the churches of God. |
|
|
|
1 Corinthians 11:17
|
|
But in giving this instruction, I do not praise
you, because you come together not for the better but for the worse. |
|
|
|
1 Corinthians 11:18
|
|
For, in the first place, when you come together
as a church, I hear that divisions exist among you; and in part I believe it.
|
|
|
|
1 Corinthians 11:19
|
|
For there must also be factions among you, so
that those who are approved may become evident among you. |
|
|
|
1 Corinthians 11:20
|
|
Therefore when you meet together, it is not
to eat the Lord's Supper, |
|
|
|
1 Corinthians 11:21
|
|
for in your eating each one takes his own supper
first; and one is hungry and another is drunk. |
|
|
|
1 Corinthians 11:22
|
|
What! Do you not have houses in which to eat
and drink? Or do you despise the church of God and shame those who have nothing?
What shall I say to you? Shall I praise you? In this I will not praise you. |
|
|
|
|
|
The Lord's Supper |
|
|
|
1 Corinthians 11:23
|
|
For I received from the Lord that which I also
delivered to you, that the Lord Jesus in the night in which He was betrayed took
bread; |
|
|
|
1 Corinthians 11:24
|
|
and when He had given thanks, He broke it and
said, "This is My body, which is for you; do this in remembrance
of Me." |
|
|
|
1 Corinthians 11:25
|
|
In the same way He took the cup also after supper,
saying, "This cup is the new covenant in My blood; do this,
as often as you drink it, in remembrance of Me." |
|
|
|
1 Corinthians 11:26
|
|
For as often as you eat this bread and drink
the cup, you proclaim the Lord's death until He comes. |
|
|
|
1 Corinthians 11:27
|
|
Therefore whoever eats the bread or drinks the
cup of the Lord in an unworthy manner, shall be guilty of the body and the blood
of the Lord. |
|
|
|
1 Corinthians 11:28
|
|
But a man must examine himself, and in so doing
he is to eat of the bread and drink of the cup. |
|
|
|
1 Corinthians 11:29
|
|
For he who eats and drinks, eats and drinks
judgment to himself if he does not judge the body rightly. |
|
|
|
1 Corinthians 11:30
|
|
For this reason many among you are weak and
sick, and a number sleep. |
|
|
|
1 Corinthians 11:31
|
|
But if we judged ourselves rightly, we would
not be judged. |
|
|
|
1 Corinthians 11:32
|
|
But when we are judged, we are disciplined by
the Lord so that we will not be condemned along with the world. |
|
|
|
1 Corinthians 11:33
|
|
So then, my brethren, when you come together
to eat, wait for one another. |
|
|
|
1 Corinthians 11:34
|
|
If anyone is hungry, let him eat at home, so
that you will not come together for judgment. The remaining matters I will arrange
when I come. |
