"How far is too far?" sounds wise… until you realize it's the wrong question.
SummaryIn 1 Corinthians 10, Paul confronts a question believers still ask today: How far is too far? Instead of drawing new boundaries, he takes us back to Israel's failures to show how proximity, participation, and self-justified freedom slowly redraw moral lines. Paul reframes everything with one governing aim—live every part of life for the glory of God.
