The same damnation that you would get for these sins. It definitely isn't eternal damnation in hell, and more than likely is the chastening of the Lord since that it what you will recieve for not judging yourself and not discerning the Lord's body. Unless you aren't saved, then you are going to hell already because you aren't cleansed from the blood, and taking the Lord's supper without being saved wouldn't make you go to hell any more than that.
Joh 3:18 He that believeth on him is not condemned: but he that believeth not is condemned already, because he hath not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God.

Kevin had this to say about Damnation and Condemnation.
It is interesting that Christians can have damnation and not condemnation.
Brandon gave this reply. it would seem in context it is only Israelite's.

The Law teaches us that some sins are worse than others. I also disagree with your statement that "only one sin" sends men to hell. Rejecting Christ is rejecting the only way out of our just punishment. We deserve hell because of all of our sin. Romans 6:23 For the wages of sin is death; but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord.

so how do we apply Judge yourself in context of 1Cor 11. here in this thread we can discuss the differences of Damnation and condemnation instead of starting a new thread. seeing hell is either the outcome for some and not for Christians.
Damnations still seem to be like certain charges that hold differing penalties however all go to the same place to pay the price some longer some shorter (if it were a earthly prison) so maybe there are differing levels of punishment or it could be that each mans conscience will be the convicting torment throughout eternity.
