1 Corinthians 10:22

20 Rather, that the things which the Gentiles ^asacrifice ^bthey sacrifice to demons and not to God, and I do not want you to have fellowship with demons.

21 ^aYou cannot drink the cup of the Lord and ^bthe cup of demons; you cannot partake of the ^cLord’s table and of the table of demons.

22 Or do we ^aprovoke the Lord to jealousy? ^bAre we stronger than He?

23 All things are lawful¹ for me, but not all things are ^ahelpful; all things are lawful for me, but not all things² edify.

24 Let no one seek his own, but each one ^athe other’s well-being.

1 Corinthians 10:22

If we share in pagan idolatry, we stir God up against us. He is intensely interested in our welfare, and He has a very sensitive regard for our faith and our needs. If we need to be chastised and corrected, and it needs to be hard, He will do it because He is interested and concerned. He will not allow the honor and respect that is due Him to go to another because that would be unfair and misleading to us. So He must strike out in correction.
