So a person should examine himself before he eats of the bread and drinks of the cup.
Greatly distressed, they began to say to him one after another, “Surely not I, Lord?”
For he who eats and drinks in an unworthy manner eats and drinks judgment on himself, since he does not discern the body of the Lord.
If we would evaluate ourselves, we would not be judged.
Examine yourselves to see if you are in the faith; test yourselves. Or do you not realize that Jesus Christ is in you?—unless, of course, you fail to meet the test.
But each person should test his own work, and then he will have reason for boasting in regard to himself alone, and not in regard to another.
