1 Corinthians 11:30

James Moffatt - New Testament

That is why many of you are ill and infirm, and a number even dead.

See the chapter Copy

I reprove and discipline those whom I love; so be in warm earnest and repent.

Since we believe that Jesus died and rose again, then it follows that by means of Jesus God will bring with him those who have fallen asleep.

Here is a secret truth for you: not all of us are to die, but all of us are to be changed —

As it is, we are chastened when we are judged by him, so that we may not be condemned along with the world.

Of course David, after serving God's purpose in his own generation, died and was laid beside his fathers; he suffered decay,

Then he knelt down and cried aloud, "Lord, let not this sin stand against them!" With these words he slept the sleep of death.

For he who eats and drinks without a proper sense of the Body, eats and drinks to his own condemnation.

If we only judged our own lives truly, we would not come under the Lord's judgment.
