“But this I say . . . that the things which the Gentiles sacrifice, they sacrifice to devils, and not to God: and I would not that ye should have fellowship with devils.
For ye cannot drink the cup of the Lord, and the cup of devils . . . ye cannot be partakers of the Lord’s table (the Bread of Life), and of the table of devils . . . !”
– I Corinthians 10:20-21
“In that day . . . will I sprinkle clean water upon you, and ye shall be clean, yea, from all your filthiness, and from all your idols, will I cleanse you . . .
Then the heathen (unbelieving) that are left round about you shall know . . . that I the LORD build the ruined places, and I the LORD plant that which was desolate . . . For I the LORD have spoken it, and I will do it !”
– Ezekiel 36:25-56*
