Reverence for the Body | 1 Corinthians 11:17-34
This passage covers two topics: division within the church and the seriousness of the communion celebration. We learn that there was an ungodly class distinction in the early church that distorted the message of the gospel. It was so serious that God was afflicting those who were guilty of this sin. The sermon also addresses the way in which the celebration of the communion meal goes all the way back to the covenant God made with Abram.
