1 Corinthians 10:14-22

14Therefore, my dearly loved ones, flee from idolatry.

15I speak as to sensible people—judge for yourselves what I say.

16The cup of blessing that we bless—isn’t it a sharing of Messiah’s blood? The bread which we break—isn’t it a sharing of Messiah’s body?

17Since there is one bread, we who are many are one body—for we all partake of the one bread.

18Consider physical Israel. Those who eat the sacrifices—aren’t they partners in the altar?

19What am I saying then—that an idol sacrifice is anything, or that an idol is anything?

20No, I’m saying that what the pagans sacrifice is to demons and not to God, and I don’t want you to become partners with demons.

21You cannot drink the cup of the Lord and the cup of demons. You cannot partake of the table of the Lord and the table of demons.

22Or do we provoke the Lord to jealousy? We are not stronger than He, are we?
