"Am I saying that idols or food sacrificed to them amount to anything?"

“What am I saying then? That a thing sacrificed to idols is anything, or that an idol is anything?”
“What then? Do I say that what is offered in sacrifice to idols is any thing? Or that the idol is any thing?”
“Do I say, then, that what is offered to images is anything, or that the image is anything?”
“What say I then? that the idol is any thing, or that which is offered in sacrifice to idols is any thing?”
Is not the cup of blessing that we bless a sharing in the blood of Christ? Is not the bread that we break a sharing in the body of Christ?
Because there is one bread, we who are many are one body, for we all share the one bread.
Look at the people of Israel. Are not those who eat the sacrifices partners in the altar?
Am I saying that idols or food sacrificed to them amount to anything?
No, I mean that what the pagans sacrifice is to demons and not to God. I do not want you to be partners with demons.
You cannot drink the cup of the Lord and the cup of demons. You cannot take part in the table of the Lord and the table of demons.
Or are we trying to provoke the Lord to jealousy? Are we really stronger than he is?
