These guys never judged themselves so the Lord judged them, and a lot worse things happened to them then if they would have just judged themselves. They became weak, sick, or died.

At the church I go to, we bow our heads before we start, and we give people time to fess up to the Lord if they haven't been doing it regularly (which every Christian should).
My sins have already been forgiven Kevin, past, present, and future. What Paul reveals to me in these passages is that there was a bar at the church of Corinth. You seem to be teaching forgiveness of sins through works, ours.

Grace and peace brother
