Charles Spurgeon Commentary 1 Corinthians 11:26-27

"For as often as ye eat this bread, and drink the cup, ye proclaim the Lord`s death till he come. Wherefore whosoever shall eat the bread or drink the cup of the Lord in an unworthy manner, shall be guilty of the body and the blood of the Lord." — 1 Corinthians 11:26-27 (ASV)

For as often as ye eat this bread, and drink this cup, ye do shew the Lord's death till he come. Wherefore whosoever shall eat this bread, and drink this cup of the Lord, unworthily, shall be guilty of the body and blood of the Lord.

He shall be guilty with respect to that body—not with respect to that bread, against which he cannot sin—but with respect to that body which is represented by the bread, and with respect to that blood which is represented by the cup. See with what holy solemnity this humble feast is fenced and invested. There is a divinity that hedges the simple ordinance of Christ, so that people will not trifle with it to their eternal ruin.
