1Corinthians:8:8-13
Seeker Overlay ON
*
But meat commendeth us not to God :
for neither ,
if we eat ,
are we the better ;
neither ,
if we eat not ,
are we the worse .
*
But take heed lest by any means this liberty of yours become a stumblingblock to them that are weak .
*
For if any man see thee which hast knowledge sit at meat 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 ;
*
And through thy knowledge shall the weak brother perish ,
for whom Christ died ?
*
But when ye sin so against the brethren ,
and wound their weak conscience ,
ye sin against Christ .
*
Wherefore ,
if meat make my brother to offend ,
I will eat no flesh while the world standeth ,
lest I make my brother to offend .
