3But if any man love God, the same is known of him.Select 1 Corinthians 8:3

4As concerning therefore the eating of those things that are offered in sacrifice unto idols, we know that an idol is nothing in the world, and that there is none other God but one.Select 1 Corinthians 8:4

5For though there be that are called gods, whether in heaven or in earth, (as there be gods many, and lords many,)Select 1 Corinthians 8:5

7Howbeit there is not in every man that knowledge: for some with conscience of the idol unto this hour eat it as a thing offered unto an idol; and their conscience being weak is defiled.Select 1 Corinthians 8:7

8But meat commendeth us not to God: for neither, if we eat, are we the better; neither, if we eat not, are we the worse.Select 1 Corinthians 8:8
