1 Now concerning things sacrificed to idols: We know that we all have knowledge. Knowledge puffs up, but love builds up. WEB — 1Corinthians 8:1
2 But if anyone thinks that he knows anything, he doesn't yet know as he ought to know. WEB — 1Corinthians 8:2
3 But if anyone loves God, the same is known by him. WEB — 1Corinthians 8:3
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. WEB — 1Corinthians 8:4
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;” WEB — 1Corinthians 8:5
6 yet to us there is one God, the Father, of whom are all things, and we to him; and one Lord, Jesus Christ, through whom are all things, and we through him. WEB — 1Corinthians 8:6
7 However, that knowledge isn't in all men. But some, being used until now to the idol, eat as of a thing sacrificed to an idol, and their conscience, being weak, is defiled. WEB — 1Corinthians 8:7
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. WEB — 1Corinthians 8:8
9 But be careful that by any means this liberty of yours doesn't become a stumbling block to the weak. WEB — 1Corinthians 8:9
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? WEB — 1Corinthians 8:10
11 And through your knowledge, he who is weak perishes, the brother for whose sake Christ died. WEB — 1Corinthians 8:11
12 Thus, sinning against the brothers, and wounding their conscience when it is weak, you sin against Christ. WEB — 1Corinthians 8:12
13 Therefore, if food causes my brother to stumble, I will eat no meat forevermore, that I don't cause my brother to stumble. WEB — 1Corinthians 8:13
