I don't see this as a sin, but as an unrenewed mind Cee. And not in a punishing kind of way, but failure to obtain because of unbelief. Not refusing to believe, though it could be this for a few, but lack of understanding what these scriptures mean.
I've heard this many times...we must examine our hearts to see if there is any sin...and not take part if so.
This is error. We take communion in our need of all that Jesus has obtained for us through His death...but even moreso with His life. We are lifed by His body and blood. Here is where the scripture comes into play, if that same Spirit that raised Christ from the dead...He will quicken our mortal body. We can be lifed now, and not have to wait for immortality.
So we die from diseases because of lack of teaching truth. Is what I see in failure to discern His body through our communion with Him.
We will however, step over into glory, whether ill or not at some point...unless we are taken.
