Having communion with Christ 1 Corinthians 10:15-22: The children of Israel in the wilderness saw more miracles than anyone before them or after them. Yet they turned to idolatry. The very nature of God is opposed to idolatry. He is the one true God and our communion must be with Him. The Corinthian people had been called out of the background of idolatry to serve God. (Acts 26:18) They were to now flee from idolatry and have communion with God through Jesus Christ.

Idolatry takes many forms. Some bow down before gods of wood or stone. Others bow before the god of covetous. "Mortify therefore your members which are upon the earth; fornication, uncleanness, inordinate affection, evil concupiscence, and covetousness, which is idolatry." (Colossians 3:5) Flee idolatry because what ever ceremonies you engage in then you identify yourself with that one. Communion identifies us with Christ. Idol feasts identify you with idols. (1 Corinthians 10:15-18) Idols are of the devil. And "...Ye cannot be partakers of the Lord's Table, and of the table of devils." (1 Corinthians 10:21)
