1 Corinthians 11:26

The Lord's Supper The return of Christ The cross and atonement Witness and mission

²⁴ and when He had given thanks, He broke it and said, “This is My body, which is for you; do this in remembrance of Me.”

²⁵ In the same way, after supper He took the cup, saying, “This cup is the new covenant in My blood; do this, as often as you drink it, in remembrance of Me.”

For as often as you eat this bread and drink this cup, you proclaim the Lord’s death until He comes.

²⁷ Therefore, whoever eats the bread or drinks the cup of the Lord in an unworthy manner will be guilty of sinning against the body and blood of the Lord.

²⁸ Each one must examine himself before he eats of the bread and drinks of the cup.

Do read the surrounding verses too, because the context often says more than a single verse.
