1 Corinthians 10.1-14 — Distractions that Disqualify

By September 6, 20201 Corinthians

1) What comes to mind when you think of distractions that disqualify?

2) Where you do you find yourself relating to the four examples of idolatry of the Israelites that Paul gives in 1 Corinthians 10:7-10? Are there areas in your life where you see yourself refusing, repurposing, requiring, or rejecting God’s instruction and gifts?

3) Paul warns us to be careful if we think we stand, lest we fall. Are there areas in your life where you need to be aware of the pull/push (temptation/test) deception technique the enemy can use?

4) What may be pulling you away from God with the false promise of offering something better than God can provide?

5) What circumstances in your life may be pushing you away from God as your trust in his goodness/faithfulness is questioned?

6) How does it encourage you to know that our God is faithful and will provide an escape…always?

7) Are there things in your life that you recognize are distractions that are designed to disqualify? Take some time and reflect on the truth that our God is better than any distraction this world has to offer.
