All for the Glory of GOD

1 Corinthians  10

Inspired thots

How appropriate the chapter after reading an article of hell; truly, if not for God's grace, all will end up in hell.
Over time, God has been reminding man, (me), of the finale! Will man (me) really heed God's woo?

Can I claim 'ignorance' to God's ways when He has spoken and kept reminding with His word?
v5 God was not pleased...
v6 these things occurred as EXAMPLES to keep us from setting our hearts on evil things as they did..
v11 these things... were written down as WARNINGS for us...

~ do not be idolaters
~ should not test the Lord
~ do not grumble
~ do not commit sexual immorality

v12 ...IF you think you are STANDING FIRM, be careful that you dont FALL!

If what I do is not God's way, then it is the devil's.
v21 ... CANNOT drink the cup of the Lord and the cup of demons too...

v23 EVERYTHING is PERMISSIBLE but not everything is Beneficial or Constructive.
v24 NOBODY should seek his own good, but the good of others.

v 31 Whatever I do, DO IT ALL for the Glory of God.
Bottomline:
v33 try to please everybody in every way... seek not my own good but the good of many, so that they may be saved.
