But if we were true judges of ourselves, punishment would not come on us.
But let no man take of the bread and the cup without testing himself.
For this cause a number of you are feeble and ill, and a number are dead.
But if punishment does come, it is sent by the Lord, so that we may be safe when the world is judged.
If we say openly that we have done wrong, he is upright and true to his word, giving us forgiveness of sins and making us clean from all evil.
So keep in mind where you were at first, and be changed in heart and do the first works; or I will come to you, and will take away your light from its place, if your hearts are not changed.
