1 Now concerning things sacrificed to idols: We know that we all have knowledge. Knowledge puffs up, but love builds up. 1 Corinthians 8:1WEB
2 But if anyone thinks that he knows anything, he doesn’t yet know as he ought to know. 1 Corinthians 8:2WEB
3 But anyone who loves God is known by him. 1 Corinthians 8:3WEB
4 Therefore concerning the eating of things sacrificed to idols, we know that no idol is anything in the world, and that there is no other God but one. 1 Corinthians 8:4WEB
5 For though there are things that are called “gods”, whether in the heavens or on earth—as there are many “gods” and many “lords”— 1 Corinthians 8:5WEB
6 yet to us there is one God, the Father, of whom are all things, and we for him; and one Lord, Jesus Christ, through whom are all things, and we live through him. 1 Corinthians 8:6WEB
7 However, that knowledge isn’t in all men. But some, with consciousness of an idol until now, eat as of a thing sacrificed to an idol, and their conscience, being weak, is defiled. 1 Corinthians 8:7WEB
8 But food will not commend us to God. For neither, if we don’t eat are we the worse, nor if we eat are we the better. 1 Corinthians 8:8WEB
9 But be careful that by no means does this liberty of yours become a stumbling block to the weak. 1 Corinthians 8:9WEB
10 For if a man sees you who have knowledge sitting in an idol’s temple, won’t his conscience, if he is weak, be emboldened to eat things sacrificed to idols? 1 Corinthians 8:10WEB
11 And through your knowledge, he who is weak perishes, the brother for whose sake Christ died. 1 Corinthians 8:11WEB
12 Thus, sinning against the brothers, and wounding their conscience when it is weak, you sin against Christ. 1 Corinthians 8:12WEB
13 Therefore, if food causes my brother to stumble, I will eat no meat forever more, that I don’t cause my brother to stumble. 1 Corinthians 8:13WEB
