Be in one accord – 1 Cor 11:19-20
Vs 19 – These divisions Paul sarcasticly says show God’s approval. In reality they do not. God is no respecter of person. He is glorified when people dwell together in unity. The first real out pouring on the church after the believers were one accord and ready to receive.
Vs 20 – Paul makes it very clear that when they come together they are not celebrating the Lord’s Supper. Division does not bring people together but breaks them apart. Paul tells them not to call their love feasts the Lord’s Supper because it is a false hood. The Lord’s Supper is a celebration designed to bring people together and to remind all who participate of the Lord’s broken body and shed blood. To help them understand the death, burial and resurrection of Jesus Christ.
