“Let us not test Christ, as some of them did—and were destroyed by serpents.”
— 1 Corinthians 10:9
Not every snake shows up in the grass.
Some show up in pride.
In compromise.
In presumption.
This verse isn’t about fear.
It’s about reverence.
Israel tested God in the wilderness. They pushed boundaries. They assumed grace would cover rebellion. They flirted with disobedience — and the serpents came.
Paul’s warning is clear:
Don’t play with what can kill you.
The Meaning
“Let us not test Christ…” — 1 Corinthians 10:9
The serpent has always been there.
In the garden.
In the wilderness.
In the culture.
But so has truth.
Snake Bites is about discernment.
About standing firm.
About not playing with what was meant to destroy you.
