15What I am saying is for wise men, do you be the judges of it.
16The cup of blessing which we take, does it not give us a part in the blood of Christ? and is not the broken bread a taking part in the body of Christ?
17Because we, being a number of persons, are one bread, we are one body: for we all take part in the one bread.
18See Israel after the flesh: do not those who take as food the offerings of the altar take a part in the altar?
19Do I say, then, that what is offered to images is anything, or that the image is anything?
20What I say is that the things offered by the Gentiles are offered to evil spirits and not to God; and it is not my desire for you to have any part with evil spirits.
21It is not possible for you, at the same time, to take the cup of the Lord and the cup of evil spirits; you may not take part in the table of the Lord and the table of evil spirits.
