1 Corinthians 10:14-17

Learn from Israel, Flee Idolatry, and Seek the Good of Others for God’s Glory

Berean Standard Bible, Public Domain - Translation notes - Reference sources

14 Therefore, my beloved, flee from idolatry.

15 I speak to reasonable people; judge for yourselves what I say.

16 Is not the cup of blessing that we bless a participation in the blood of Christ? And is not the bread that we break a participation in the body of Christ?

17 Because there is one loaf, we who are many are one body; for we all partake of the one loaf.
