Grace to You:
Participants in Christ

  • The Nature and Danger of Idolatry
  • Communion as Participation in Christ
  • The Blessings of Participation in Christ

Questions for Further Study or Group Discussion:

  1. Read 1 Corinthians 10:14-22. What is idolatry? In Paul’s context what does idolatry look like? What does idolatry look like in our context?
  2. Why is idolatry so dangerous? In what ways do we end up having divided hearts (serving both idols and Christ)?
  3. What does communion have to do with idolatry?
  4. What is the nature of our “participation” in the blood of Christ and the body of Christ?
  5. What are the blessings of participating in Christ? Why are these so significant?

Memory Verse of the Week: 1 Corinthians 10:16 The cup of blessing that we bless, is it not a participation in the blood of Christ? The bread that we break, is it not a participation in the body of Christ? (ESV)
