Paul is warning the Corinthians against idolatry and immorality like that engaged in by the Israelites in the desert (1 Cor.10:6-11). The actual promise, found in 10:13 is that God will not let us be tempted beyond our ability but will provide a way of escape so that we can withstand the temptation without giving into sin.Cindyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16897681257309954354noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18580914.post-15610297884970930722010-05-02T09:50:07.268-05:002010-05-02T09:50:07.268-05:00Actually there is a verse in the Bible like that a...Actually there is a verse in the Bible like that about God not giving us more than we can bear (Andy will know the reference). But it's in the context of temptation. He won't give us more temptation than we can handle. But you're right, lots of times people take it out of context and try to apply it to trials.
