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.

The Grace New Testament Commentary (B. Questions concerning Christian Liberty (8:1–11:1))
Dwight L Hunt says about 1 Cor 10:11, “Paul concludes that these examples (typoi) are designed for the believers’ admonition. The word admonition (noutheisan) can mean warning. Its verbal form is used in places like Col 1:28 and 1 Thess 5:14 to covey the notion of putting sense into someone. Paul wants to put some sense into the believers upon whom the end of the ages have come. The same God who disciplined Israel would bring the same type of judgment for the Corinthians (cf. 1 Cor 11:30).”
30 For this cause many are weak and sickly among you, and many sleep.

46 And why call ye me, Lord, Lord, and do not the things which I say?
47 Whosoever cometh to me, and heareth my sayings, and doeth them, I will shew you to whom he is like:
48 He is like a man which built an house, and digged deep, and laid the foundation on a rock: and when the flood arose, the stream beat vehemently upon that house, and could not shake it: for it was founded upon a rock.
49 But he that heareth, and doeth not, is like a man that without a foundation built an house upon the earth; against which the stream did beat vehemently, and immediately it fell; and the ruin of that house was great.

25 Now to him who is able to establish you in accordance with my gospel, the message I proclaim about Jesus Christ, in keeping with the revelation of the mystery hidden for long ages past,
26 but now revealed and made known through the prophetic writings by the command of the eternal God, so that all the Gentiles might come to the obedience that comes from faith—
Paul states to Timothy the purpose of Scripture.
Paul states to Timothy the purpose of Scripture.
16 All scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness:
Scripture is “given by inspiration of God, and is Profitable.” The Greek word means ‘useful, beneficial.’ It is used only 3 times in this sense in the New Testament.

8 For bodily exercise profiteth little: but godliness is profitable unto all things, having promise of the life that now is, and of that which is to come.
8 This is a faithful saying, and these things I will that thou affirm constantly, that they which have believed in God might be careful to maintain good works. These things are good and profitable unto men.
All Scripture is Profitable for doctrine. The Greek work mean ‘teaching, instruction.’

We should receive doctrine which is, ‘instruction and teaching’ from what the Israelite did after they were delivered from Egypt.

4 For whatsoever things were written aforetime were written for our learning, that we through patience and comfort of the scriptures might have hope.
God tells us through Samuel what is most important to God.
God tells us through Samuel what is most important to God.
22 And Samuel said, Hath the Lord as great delight in burnt offerings and sacrifices, As in obeying the voice of the Lord? Behold, to obey is better than sacrifice, And to hearken than the fat of rams.
23 For rebellion is as the sin of witchcraft, And stubbornness is as iniquity and idolatry. Because thou hast rejected the word of the Lord, He hath also rejected thee from being king.

10 The thief cometh not, but for to steal, and to kill, and to destroy: I am come that they might have life, and that they might have it more abundantly.
