1Corinthians 8




updv@1Corinthians:8:1 @ Now concerning things sacrificed to idols: We know that we all have knowledge. Knowledge puffs up, but love edifies.

updv@1Corinthians:8:2 @ If any man thinks that he knows anything, he doesn't know yet as he ought to know;

updv@1Corinthians:8:3 @ but if any man loves God, the same is known by him.

updv@1Corinthians:8:4 @ Concerning therefore the eating of things sacrificed to idols, we know that no idol is [anything] in the world, and that there is no God but one.

updv@1Corinthians:8:5 @ For though there are those that are called gods, whether in heaven or on earth; as there are many gods, and many lords;

updv@1Corinthians:8:6 @ 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.

updv@1Corinthians:8:7 @ Nevertheless there is not in all men that knowledge: 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.

updv@1Corinthians:8:8 @ But food will not commend us to God: neither, if we don't eat, are we the worse; nor, if we eat, are we the better.

updv@1Corinthians:8:9 @ But take heed lest by any means this liberty of yours(note:){+}(:note) become a stumbling block to the weak.

updv@1Corinthians:8:10 @ For if a man sees you who has knowledge sitting at meat in an idol's temple, will not his conscience, if he is weak, be emboldened to eat things sacrificed to idols?

updv@1Corinthians:8:11 @ For through your knowledge he who is weak perishes, the brother for whose sake Christ died.

updv@1Corinthians:8:12 @ And thus, sinning against the brothers, and wounding their conscience when it is weak, you(note:){+}(:note) sin against Christ.

updv@1Corinthians:8:13 @ Therefore, if meat causes my brother to stumble, I will eat no flesh forevermore, that I do not cause my brother to stumble.
