1 Corinthians 10:12-20
English Standard Version
Chapter 10
12Therefore let anyone who thinks that he stands take heed lest he fall. 13No temptation has overtaken you that is not common to man. God is faithful, and he will not let you be tempted beyond your ability, but with the temptation he will also provide the way of escape, that you may be able to endure it.
14Therefore, my beloved, flee from idolatry.
15I speak as to sensible people; judge for yourselves what I say.
16The cup of blessing that we bless, is it not a participation in the blood of Christ? The bread that we break, is it not a participation in the body of Christ?
17Because there is one bread, we who are many are one body, for we all partake of the one bread.
18Consider the people of Israel: are not those who eat the sacrifices participants in the altar?
19What do I imply then? That food offered to idols is anything, or that an idol is anything?
20No, I imply that what pagans sacrifice they offer to demons and not to God. I do not want you to be participants with demons.
