By Old Testament examples we are ”admonished” (warned) by God

Jesus Ministries, Joan Boney  ... 

 

I Corinthians 10:11  Now all these things happened unto them for ensamples: and they are written for our admonition, upon whom the ends of the world are come.

 

I find parallel examples also in many of the sections of New Testament scripture, giving the same instruction from God that I saw in the Old Testament.

You can't run around with unbelievers:

 

Exodus 34

 

10 And HE said, Behold, I make a covenant: before all thy people I will do marvels, such as have not been done in all the earth, nor in any nation: and all the people among which thou art shall see the work of the LORD: for it is a terrible thing that I will do with thee.

 

11 Observe thou that which I command thee this day: behold, I drive out before thee the Amorite, and the Canaanite, and the Hittite, and the Perizzite, and the Hivite, and the Jebusite.

 

12 Take heed to thyself, lest thou make a covenant with the inhabitants of the land whither thou goest, lest it be for a snare in the midst of thee:

 

13 But ye shall destroy their altars, break their images, and cut down their groves:

 

14 For thou shalt worship no other god: for the LORD, whose name is Jealous, is a jealous God:

 

15 Lest thou make a covenant with the inhabitants of the land, and they go a whoring after their gods, and do sacrifice unto their gods, and one call thee, and thou eat of his sacrifice;

 

16 And thou take of their daughters unto thy sons, and their daughters go a whoring after their gods, and make thy sons go a whoring after their gods.

 

We see the same instruction in the New Testament:

 

2 Corinthians 6

 

14 Be ye not unequally yoked together with unbelievers: for what fellowship hath righteousness with unrighteousness? and what communion hath light with darkness?

 

15 And what concord hath Christ with Belial? or what part hath he that believeth with an infidel?

 

16 And what agreement hath the temple of God with idols? for ye are the temple of the living God; as God hath said, I will dwell in them, and walk in them; and I will be their God, and they shall be MY people.

 

17 Wherefore come out from among them, and be ye separate, saith the Lord, and touch not the unclean; and I will receive you,

 

18 And will be a Father unto you, and ye shall be MY sons and daughters, saith the Lord Almighty.
