What does judge the body rightly mean? Does the body refer to self or to the corporate body at the time? IOW, is it an examination of one's self or how one is interacting with those in the corporate body.

I only read the latter this morning in researching arguments on the Lord's Supper. I always thought it as being an self examination.

Now, I heard in the past that the put to sleep warning in the next few verses should not be part of the Pastor's Invitation to the table. That it is separated from judging the body correctly. I have heard Pastors include it while others have not.

Any clarifications on the above questions.

Why does it appear that the various views on the Sacraments may be the undoing of the Reformed.
