CO1 11:18 For first of all, when ye come together in the church, I hear

CO1 11:19 For there must be also heresies among you, that they which

CO1 11:20 When ye come together therefore into one place, this is not

CO1 11:21 For in eating every one taketh before other his own supper:
and one is hungry, and another is drunken.
CO1 11:22 What? have ye not houses to eat and to drink in? or despise
ye the church of God, and shame them that have not? what shall I say to
