14 Therefore, my dearly loved ones, flee from idolatry.
15 I speak as to sensible people—judge for yourselves what I say.
16 The cup of blessing that we bless—isn’t it a sharing of Messiah’s blood? The bread which we break—isn’t it a sharing of Messiah’s body?
17 Since there is one bread, we who are many are one body—for we all partake of the one bread.
18 Consider physical Israel. Those who eat the sacrifices—aren’t they partners in the altar?
19 What am I saying then—that an idol sacrifice is anything, or that an idol is anything?
20 No, I’m saying that what the pagans sacrifice is to demons and not to God, and I don’t want you to become partners with demons.
