Eerste Korintiërs 10: 14-22

10:14 As gevolg hiervan, mees geliefde van my, vlug van die aanbidding van afgode.

10:15 Want ek praat met die wat verstandig is, beoordeel wat Ek sê vir julleself.

10:16 Die beker van seën wat ons seën, is dit nie 'n gemeenskap in die Bloed van Christus nie? En die brood wat ons breek, is dit nie 'n deelname aan die Liggaam van die Here nie?

10:17 Deur die een brood, ons, alhoewel baie, is een liggaam: ons almal wat deel het aan die een brood.

10:18 Dink aan Israel, volgens die vlees. Is die wat van die offers eet, nie deel aan die altaar nie?

10:19 Wat is volgende? Moet ek sê dat wat aan afgode verbrand word, enigiets is? Of dat die afgod enigiets is?

10:20 Maar die dinge wat die heidene verbrand, hulle verbrand vir demone, en nie aan God nie. En ek wil nie hê dat julle met demone deelagtig word nie.

10:21 Jy kan nie die beker van die Here drink nie, en die beker van demone. Julle kan nie deelgenote wees van die tafel van die Here nie, en deelgenote aan die tafel van duiwels.

10:22 Of moet ons die Here tot jaloesie prikkel? Is ons sterker as hy? Alles is vir my wettig, maar nie alles is nuttig nie.

Evangelie

Lukas 6: 43-49

6:43 For there is no good tree which produces bad fruit, nor does an evil tree produce good fruit. 6:44 For each and every tree is known by its fruit. For they do not gather figs from thorns, nor do they gather the grape from the bramble bush.

6:45 A good man, from the good storehouse of his heart, offers what is good. And an evil man, from the evil storehouse, offers what is evil. For out of the abundance of the heart, the mouth speaks.

6:46 But why do you call me, ‘Here, Here,’ and not do what I say?

\6:47 Anyone who comes to me, and listens to my words, and does them: I will reveal to you what he is like.

6:48 He is like a man building a house, who has dug deep and has laid the foundation upon the rock. Toe, when the floodwaters came, the river was rushing against that house, and it was not able to move it. For it was founded upon the rock.

6:49 But whoever hears and does not do: he is like a man building his house upon the soil, without a foundation. The river rushed against it, and it soon fell down, and the ruin of that house was great.”
