81 Corinthians 8

1Now concerning those things that are sacrificed to idols: we know we all have knowledge. Knowledge puffeth up: but charity edifieth.Select 1 Corinthians 8:1

2And if any man think that he knoweth any thing, he hath not yet known as he ought to know.Select 1 Corinthians 8:2

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

4But as for the meats that are sacrificed to idols, we know that an idol is nothing in the world and that there is no God but one.Select 1 Corinthians 8:4

5For although there be that are called gods, either in heaven or on earth (for there be gods many and lords many):Select 1 Corinthians 8:5

6Yet to us there is but one God, the Father, of whom are all things, and we unto him: and one Lord Jesus Christ, by whom are all things, and we by him.Select 1 Corinthians 8:6

7But there is not knowledge in every one. For some until this present, with conscience of the idol, eat as a thing sacrificed to an idol: and their conscience, being weak, is defiled.Select 1 Corinthians 8:7

8But meat doth not commend us to God. For neither, if we eat, shall we have the more: nor, if we eat not, shall we have the less.Select 1 Corinthians 8:8

9But take heed lest perhaps this your liberty become a stumblingblock to the weak.Select 1 Corinthians 8:9

10For if a man see him that hath knowledge sit at meat in the idol's temple, shall not his conscience, being weak, be emboldened to eat those things which are sacrificed to idols?Select 1 Corinthians 8:10

11And through thy knowledge shall the weak brother perish, for whom Christ hath died?Select 1 Corinthians 8:11

12Now when you sin thus against the brethren and wound their weak conscience, you sin against Christ.Select 1 Corinthians 8:12

13Wherefore, if meat scandalize my brother, I will never eat flesh, lest I should scandalize my brother.Select 1 Corinthians 8:13
