Weekly Scripture
Taken from the New International Version
1 Corinthians 10: 1 - 13
1: For I do not want you to be ignorant of the fact, brothers, that our forefathers were
all under the cloud and that they all passed through the sea.
2: They were all baptized into Moses in the cloud and in the sea.
3: They all ate the same spiritual food
4: and drank the same spiritual drink; for they drank from the spiritual rock that
accompanied them, and that rock was Christ.
5: Nevertheless, God was not pleased with most of them; their bodies were scattered
over the desert.
6: Now these things occurred as examples to keep us from setting our hearts on evil
things as they did.
7: Do not be idolaters, as some of them were; as it is written: "The people sat down to
eat and drink and got up to indulge in pagan revelry."
8: We should not commit sexual immorality, as some of them did—and in one day
twenty-three thousand of them died.
9: We should not test the Lord, as some of them did—and were killed by snakes.
10: And do not grumble, as some of them did—and were killed by the destroying angel.
11: These things happened to them as examples and were written down as warnings for
us, on whom the fulfillment of the ages has come.
12: So, if you think you are standing firm, be careful that you don't fall!
13: No temptation has seized you except what is common to man. And God is faithful;
he will not let you be tempted beyond what you can bear. But when you are tempted,
he will also provide a way out so that you can stand up under it.
