  4. Sacred Sunday~I Corinthians Chapter 10/Avoid Self Serving/Selfishness
Welcome to Sacred Sunday! God did a lot of great things in the
olden days. Just check out Exodus for some examples. He led people
out of Egypt, parted the Red Sea, gave them manna and water in the
desert. God is pretty awesome like that. And how did they repay
him? By sinning their butts off. They did weird sexual things. They
tested God. They complained and bellyached constantly. They bowed
down in front of idols. And God took it to them. All this happened
as a warning: do not try this stuff with God. It never works out
well. Demonic Meals. Let's go back to food for a minute. When
Christians come together and share bread and wine, they're
signaling their special relationship with God. The same is true for
Jews who eat kosher meats sacrificed in the temple. So, even though
you're not forming any kind of special relationships with Roman
gods when you eat their idolatrous meat, you might be accidentally
making friends with demons. Okay, so the Roman gods don't exist,
right? They're not actually gods, but they're demons. So when you
chow down on some food and drink from their temples, you're sort of
throwing your hat in with them. Paul just doesn't think it sounds
like a good idea. One day you're drinking the blood of Christ, the
next day you're drinking from some demon's cup. Yuck. In other
words: just say no to pagan meals.  You need to think of other
people's feelings, too. If you're truly trying to make God happy
with your actions, you're not going to do things that hurt your
fellow Christians. Right? Now go to your rooms and think about what
you've done.
