Passage: 1 Corinthians 10:1-11:1

-------------------

Ps William HC speaking from 1 Corinthians 10:1-11:1.

In 1 Cor 10:1– 11:1, Paul warns those loved in Christ to flee idolatry and to do all for the glory of God.

Examples from Israel’s past failures (10:1-22)

Warning: when God’s people defy him, they are destroyed (v1-11)

Pride comes before the fall! (v12)

Yet God is faithful and offers a way out of every temptation (v13)

So dear friends, flee from idolatry (v14)

For eating and drinking have spiritual significance (v15-22)

Some scenarios the Corinthians faced (10:23–11:1)

BBQ at the temple? No. (v23-24)

Meat from the market for home? Yes. (v25)

A complex situation: dining with non-Christian and Christian friends (v26-30)

Living for God's glory (Christian ethics):

Does the Bible allow it for us today?

Does my conscience allow it at this time?

What is the impact on my Christian family? (Love > my knowledge)

What is the effect on non-Christians? (Gospel > my rights)

What is the effect on my spiritual life? (God’s glory > my freedom)
