:rotfl: You're too funny.
You think that is funny? You have a warped sense of humor.
What's funny is how you pervert scripture.
Therefore whoever eats this bread or drinks this cup of the Lord in an unworthy manner will be guilty of the body and blood of the Lord.
But let a man examine himself and so let him eat of the bread and drink of the cup. For he who eats and drinks in an unworthy manner eats and drinks judgment to himself, not discerning the Lord’s body. For this reason many are weak and sick among you and many sleep.
For if we would judge ourselves, we would not be judged. But when we are judged, we are chastened by the Lord that we may not be condemned with the world. (1 Corinthians 11:27-32)

What Paul is saying is that you had better be sure that you are "In Christ" before you partake of the sacraments. Some were partaking of the sacraments because they were hungry, 1 Corinthians 11:34.
Shalom.
I do not understand your thread title. But I read your opening post.
Shalom.

Shalom.
Is this talking about the individual judging himself or is it talking about the church body, the church, the body of Christ, judging itself?
Shalom.
Jacob
What is it that you don't understand about the title?
Shalom.
I do not know who is standing in judgment or standing in the judgment, what it means, and in regard to what.
Shalom.
Jacob
Each person must judge himself or herself according to NT standards.
Shalom.
I believe that the standard that we will be measured against is the standard that God sets or the standard that God has set.
Shalom.
Jacob
Shalom, Shalom

Well, you gnash your teeth all the time, don't you?
Where do you think you are just now?
We shouldn't count our chickens before the hatching.....
Matthew {19:30} But many [that are] first shall be last; and the last [shall be] first.
Matthew {20:16} So the last shall be first, and the first last: for many be called, but
few chosen.
......just sayin'

I do love it when folks turn into ordained prophets to tell us what the bible 'means'.
Please, just stick to the Divine Words of God.
OK?
The Bible is a very easy book to understand. It was written by Christians for Christians. If you have trouble understanding it may be that you are not a Christian.

In which case, just quote the bible!
Your ideas about it, or your lessons about what it means..... are therefore unnecessary, surely?
Wrong! It was written by Christians to convert Sinners, Pagans, Naughties, Cannibals and all kinds of folks!
Oh pleeaaasssse! There are over 3000 denominations, Creeds and Churches in the World, and you tell us that the vast majority are doomed to hellfire, or at least unfit for heaven.
Don't tell me that I might not be a Christian....... please just tell me what you tell so many others, that I am not a Christian, then I'll feel more comfortable.
Just sayin' what? What does that (Israel) have to do with me? I will not stand in judgment over the 12 tribes, and I am not a member of them.
OK, so where are the twelve tribes today?
If you would only be willing divided up your "land", and apportion it to twelve tribes, you would be sitting on twelves thrones shepherding twelve tribes with the Testimony of Messiah. However the Father did say that He would raise up an idol shepherd in the land, (and every man has land; both the adamah-soil of the heart and the erets-outer-bounds-commons-profane area of the body temple, that is, the flesh).
Scattered and dispersed.
