1 Corinthians 8:6-13

6 But to us there is but one God, the Father, of whom are all things, and we in him; and one Lord Jesus Christ, by whom are all things, and we by him.
7 Howbeit 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 .
8 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 .
9 But take heed lest by any means this liberty of yours become a stumblingblock to them that are weak .
10 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;
11 And through thy knowledge shall the weak brother perish , for whom Christ died ?
12 But when ye sin so against the brethren, and wound their weak conscience, ye sin against Christ.
13 Wherefore, if meat make my brother to offend , I will eat no flesh while the world standeth *, lest I make my brother to offend .
