14Therefore, my beloved, flee from idolatry.15I speak as to sensible people; you yourselves judge what I assert.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 Israel according to the flesh: are not those who eat the sacrifices participants in the altar?19What then do I assert? That an idol-offering is anything, or that an idol is anything?20No, but that what they sacrifice they sacrifice to demons and not to God; and I do not want you to become participants 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 shall we provoke the Lord to jealousy? Are we stronger than he?
