1 Corinthians 10:18-21 Sharing With Demons 22 May 2024

1Co 10:18 Now compare the natural people of Israel:
is it not true that those who eat the sacrifices share the altar?
19 What does this mean?
That the dedication of food to false gods amounts to anything?
Or that false gods themselves amount to anything?
20 No, it does not;
simply that when pagans sacrifice,
what is sacrificed by them is sacrificed to demons who are not God.
I do not want you to share with demons.
21 You cannot drink the cup of the Lord and the cup of demons as well;
you cannot have a share at the Lord's table and the demons' table as well.

First Saint Paul says that false gods do not exist. They are not gods. And now he mentions that those false gods are demons.

What Are Demons

Perhaps false gods. Are demons beings, spirits or fallen angels? Or would they be my own lusts and projections.?
In my opinion, whatever. But I do not want to eat something dedicated to any evil.

Prayer

Jesus, I ask for the gift of discernment of spirits.
