1 Corinthians 11

1
Follow my example, as I follow the example of Christ.
2
I praise you for remembering me in everything and for holding to the teachings, just as I passed them on to you.
3
Now I want you to realize that the head of every man is Christ, and the head of the woman is man, and the head of Christ is God.
4
Every man who prays or prophesies with his head covered dishonors his head.
5
And every woman who prays or prophesies with her head uncovered dishonors her head--it is just as though her head were shaved.
6
If a woman does not cover her head, she should have her hair cut off; and if it is a disgrace for a woman to have her hair cut or shaved off, she should cover her head.
7
A man ought not to cover his head, since he is the image and glory of God; but the woman is the glory of man.
8
For man did not come from woman, but woman from man;
9
neither was man created for woman, but woman for man.
10
For this reason, and because of the angels, the woman ought to have a sign of authority on her head.
11
In the Lord, however, woman is not independent of man, nor is man independent of woman.
12
For as woman came from man, so also man is born of woman. But everything comes from God.
13
Judge for yourselves: Is it proper for a woman to pray to God with her head uncovered?
14
Does not the very nature of things teach you that if a man has long hair, it is a disgrace to him,
15
but that if a woman has long hair, it is her glory? For long hair is given to her as a covering.
16
If anyone wants to be contentious about this, we have no other practice--nor do the churches of God.
17
In the following directives I have no praise for you, for your meetings do more harm than good.
18
In the first place, I hear that when you come together as a church, there are divisions among you, and to some extent I believe it.
19
No doubt there have to be differences among you to show which of you have God's approval.
20
When you come together, it is not the Lord's Supper you eat,
21
for as you eat, each of you goes ahead without waiting for anybody else. One remains hungry, another gets drunk.
22
Don't you have homes to eat and drink in? Or do you despise the church of God and humiliate those who have nothing? What shall I say to you? Shall I praise you for this? Certainly not!
23
For I received from the Lord what I also passed on to you: The Lord Jesus, on the night he was betrayed, took bread,
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."
25
In the same way, after supper he took the cup, saying, "This cup is the new covenant in my blood; do this, whenever you drink it, in remembrance of me."
26
For whenever you eat this bread and drink this cup, you proclaim the Lord's death until he comes.
27
Therefore, whoever eats the bread or drinks the cup of the Lord in an unworthy manner will be guilty of sinning against the body and blood of the Lord.
28
A man ought to examine himself before he eats of the bread and drinks of the cup.
29
For anyone who eats and drinks without recognizing the body of the Lord eats and drinks judgment on himself.
30
That is why many among you are weak and sick, and a number of you have fallen asleep.
31
But if we judged ourselves, we would not come under judgment.
32
When we are judged by the Lord, we are being disciplined so that we will not be condemned with the world.
33
So then, my brothers, when you come together to eat, wait for each other.
34
If anyone is hungry, he should eat at home, so that when you meet together it may not result in judgment. And when I come I will give further directions.


1 Corinthians 12

1
Now about spiritual gifts, brothers, I do not want you to be ignorant.
2
You know that when you were pagans, somehow or other you were influenced and led astray to mute idols.
3
Therefore I tell you that no one who is speaking by the Spirit of God says, "Jesus be cursed," and no one can say, "Jesus is Lord," except by the Holy Spirit.
4
There are different kinds of gifts, but the same Spirit.
5
There are different kinds of service, but the same Lord.
6
There are different kinds of working, but the same God works all of them in all men.
7
Now to each one the manifestation of the Spirit is given for the common good.
8
To one there is given through the Spirit the message of wisdom, to another the message of knowledge by means of the same Spirit,
9
to another faith by the same Spirit, to another gifts of healing by that one Spirit,
10
to another miraculous powers, to another prophecy, to another distinguishing between spirits, to another speaking in different kinds of tongues, and to still another the interpretation of tongues.
11
All these are the work of one and the same Spirit, and he gives them to each one, just as he determines.
12
The body is a unit, though it is made up of many parts; and though all its parts are many, they form one body. So it is with Christ.
13
For we were all baptized by one Spirit into one body--whether Jews or Greeks, slave or free--and we were all given the one Spirit to drink.
14
Now the body is not made up of one part but of many.
15
If the foot should say, "Because I am not a hand, I do not belong to the body," it would not for that reason cease to be part of the body.
16
And if the ear should say, "Because I am not an eye, I do not belong to the body," it would not for that reason cease to be part of the body.
17
If the whole body were an eye, where would the sense of hearing be? If the whole body were an ear, where would the sense of smell be?
18
But in fact God has arranged the parts in the body, every one of them, just as he wanted them to be.
19
If they were all one part, where would the body be?
20
As it is, there are many parts, but one body.
21
The eye cannot say to the hand, "I don't need you!" And the head cannot say to the feet, "I don't need you!"
22
On the contrary, those parts of the body that seem to be weaker are indispensable,
23
and the parts that we think are less honorable we treat with special honor. And the parts that are unpresentable are treated with special modesty,
24
while our presentable parts need no special treatment. But God has combined the members of the body and has given greater honor to the parts that lacked it,
25
so that there should be no division in the body, but that its parts should have equal concern for each other.
26
If one part suffers, every part suffers with it; if one part is honored, every part rejoices with it.
27
Now you are the body of Christ, and each one of you is a part of it.
28
And in the church God has appointed first of all apostles, second prophets, third teachers, then workers of miracles, also those having gifts of healing, those able to help others, those with gifts of administration, and those speaking in different kinds of tongues.
29
Are all apostles? Are all prophets? Are all teachers? Do all work miracles?
30
Do all have gifts of healing? Do all speak in tongues ? Do all interpret?
31
But eagerly desire the greater gifts. And now I will show you the most excellent way.
