You cannot drink from both cups (1 Cor 10:1 - 11:1)

In 1 Corinthians 10:1 - 11:1, Paul is using the Israelite's turbulent past as a warning to the Corinthian church, whom he fears are in danger of having their faith polluted by the worldly influence around them. Have you felt the world around you impact your faith? Even after God provided their miraculous escape from slavery in Egypt, many Israelites died in the desert as a consequence of their sin. May we, the church, learn from Israel's mistake and choose to follow the ultimate example of Jesus in how we live our lives. We have so many examples we could follow every day. Whose example will you choose to follow? As Paul says, we cannot drink from the cup of the Lord and the cup of demons.
