1 Corinthians 11:17

---

← 1 Corinthians 11:16	1 Corinthians 11:17 (KJV)	1 Corinthians 11:18 →
But if any man seem to be contentious, we have no such custom, neither the churches of God.	Now in this that I declare [unto you] I praise [you] not, that ye come together not for the better, but for the worse.	For first of all, when ye come together in the church, I hear that there be divisions among you; and I partly believe it.
