1 Corinthians 11:17-19

English Standard Version

The Lord's Supper

¹⁷ But in the following instructions I do not commend you, because when you come together it is not for the better but for the worse. ¹⁸ For, in the first place, when you come together as a church, ^(A)I hear that there are divisions among you. And I believe it in part,^{[a] 19} for ^(B)there must be factions among you in order ^(C)that those who are genuine among you may be recognized.
