1 Corinthians 10:11
New International Version
11 These things happened to them as examples(A) and were written down as warnings for us,(B) on whom the culmination of the ages has come.(C)
1 Corinthians 10:11-12
The Message
11-12 These are all warning markers—danger!—in our history books, written down so that we don’t repeat their mistakes. Our positions in the story are parallel—they at the beginning, we at the end—and we are just as capable of messing it up as they were. Don’t be so naive and self-confident. You’re not exempt. You could fall flat on your face as easily as anyone else. Forget about self-confidence; it’s useless. Cultivate God-confidence.
