Which we bless... Here the apostle puts them in mind of their partaking of the body and blood of Christ in the sacred mysteries, and becoming thereby one mystical body with Christ. From whence he infers, ver. 21, that they who are made partakers with Christ, by the eucharistic sacrifice and sacrament, must not be made partakers with devils by eating of the meats sacrificed to them. 10:17. For we, being many, are one bread, one body: all that partake of one bread. One bread... or, as it may be rendered, agreeably both to the Latin and Greek, because the bread is one, all we, being many, are one body, who partake of that one bread. For it is by our communicating with Christ, and with one another, in this blessed sacrament, that we are formed into one mystical body; and made, as it were, one bread, compounded of many grains of corn, closely united together. 10:18. Behold Israel according to the flesh. Are not they that eat of the sacrifices partakers of the altar? 10:19. What then? Do I say that what is offered in sacrifice to idols is any thing? Or that the idol is any thing? 10:20. But the things which the heathens sacrifice, they sacrifice to devils and not to God. And I would not that you should be made partakers with devils. 10:21. You cannot drink the chalice of the Lord and the chalice of devils: you cannot be partakers of the table of the Lord and of the table of devils. 10:22. Do we provoke the Lord to jealousy? Are we stronger than he? All things are lawful for me: but all things are not expedient. 10:23. All things are lawful for me: but all things do not edify. 10:24. Let no man seek his own, but that which is another's. 10:25. Whatsoever is sold in the shambles, eat: asking no question for conscience' sake. 10:26. The earth is the Lord's and the fulness thereof. 10:27. If any of them that believe not, invite you, and you be willing to go: eat of any thing that is set before you, asking no question for conscience' sake. 10:28. But if any man say: This has been sacrificed to idols: do not eat of it, for his sake that told it and for conscience' sake. 10:29. Conscience I say, not thy own, but the other's. For why is my liberty judged by another man's conscience? 10:30. If I partake with thanksgiving, why am I evil spoken of for that for which I give thanks? 10:31. Therefore, whether you eat or drink, or whatsoever else you do, do all to the glory of God. 10:32. Be without offence to the Jew, and to the Gentiles and to the church of God: 10:33. As I also in all things please all men, not seeking that which is profitable to myself but to many: that they may be saved. 1 Corinthians Chapter 11 Women must have a covering over their heads. He blameth the abuses of their love feasts and upon that occasion treats of the Blessed Sacrament. 11:1. Be ye followers of me, as I also am of Christ. 11:2. Now I praise you, brethren, that in all things you are mindful of me and keep my ordinances as I have delivered them to you.
