In preparing for the Passover, Paul instructed Christians to be careful to have the proper motivation for accepting and discerning the Body of Christ. This involves being fully reconciled to our brothers in the faith. In Matthew 18, Jesus tells us how to deal with a brother who sins against us. There are much broader principles involved as Tom Robinson points out.
