1 Corinthians 11:17-19

Holman Christian Standard Bible

The Lord’s Supper

¹⁷ Now in giving the following instruction I do not praise you, since you come together not for the better but for the worse. ¹⁸ For to begin with, I hear that when you come together as a church there are divisions among you, and in part I believe it. ¹⁹ There must, indeed, be factions^(A) among you, so that those who are approved may be recognized among you.
