Learning From The Past - 1 Corinthians 10:1-13

In these first 13 verses Paul is exhorting the Corinthian believers that they have been set free by Christ and they are not to abuse that liberty by giving into their lusts. He retells them of the history of their ancestors in Numbers 11 and how they grumbled and complained about what the Lord had provided for them in the way of manna. They were lusting for meat and wanted to return to Egypt. Paul warns them that having a heart that is not satisfied with want God has given will end up empty, weak and lacking.
