1 Corinthians 10:6-14

6Now these things took place as examples for us, so that we will not desire evil things as they did.

7Don’t become idolaters as some of them were; as it is written, The people sat down to eat and drink, and got up to party.

8Let us not commit sexual immorality as some of them did, and in a single day twenty-three thousand people died.

9Let us not test Christ as some of them did and were destroyed by snakes.

10And don’t grumble as some of them did, and were killed by the destroyer.

11These things happened to them as examples, and they were written for our instruction, on whom the ends of the ages have come.

12So, whoever thinks he stands must be careful not to fall.

13No temptation has come upon you except what is common to humanity. But God is faithful; he will not allow you to be tempted beyond what you are able, but with the temptation he will also provide the way out so that you may be able to bear it.

14So then, my dear friends, flee from idolatry.
