1 Corinthians Chapter 8|#11 Now as touching things offered to idols, we know that we all have knowledge. Knowledge puffs up, but charity edifies.#22 And if anyone think that he knows anything, he knows nothing yet as he ought to know.#23 But if anyone love God, the same is known of him.|*24 As concerning therefore the eating of those things that are offered in sacrifice to idols, we know that an idol is nothing in the world, and that there is no other God but one.#25 For though there be that are called gods, whether in heaven or in earth, (as there be gods many, and lords many,)#26 But to us there is but one God, the Father, of whom are all things, and we in him; and one Lord Jesus Christ, by whom are all things, and we by him.|*27 However there is not in every man that knowledge: For some with conscience of the idol to this hour eat it as a thing offered to an idol; and their conscience being weak is defiled.#28 But food commends us not to God: For neither, if we eat, are we the better; neither, if we eat not, are we the worse.#29 But take heed lest by any means this liberty of yours become a stumblingblock to them that are weak.#210 For if anyone see you which have knowledge sit at food in the idol's temple, shall not the conscience of him which is weak be emboldened to eat those things which are offered to idols;#211 And through your knowledge shall the weak brother perish, for whom Christ died?#212 But when you sin so against the brethren, and wound their weak conscience, you sin against Christ.#213 Therefore, if food make my brother to offend, I will eat no flesh while the world stands, lest I make my brother to offend.
