But God has chosen the foolish things of the world to confound the wise; and God has chosen the weak things of the world to confound the things which are mighty;

We are fools for Christ's sake, but you are wise in Christ; we are weak, but you are strong; you are honorable, but we are despised.

But there is not in every man that knowledge: for some with conscience about the idol unto this hour eat it as a thing offered unto an idol; and their conscience being weak is defiled.

But take heed lest by any means this liberty of yours becomes a stumbling block to them that are weak.

For if any man sees you who have knowledge eating in the idol's temple, shall not the conscience of him who is weak be encouraged to eat those things which are offered to idols;

And through your knowledge shall the weak brother perish, for whom Christ died?

But when you sin so against the brethren, and wound their weak conscience, you sin against Christ.

To the weak became I as weak, that I might gain the weak: I am made all things to all men, that I might by all means save some.

For this cause many are weak and sickly among you, and many sleep.

Upon the first day of the week let every one of you lay by him in store, as God has prospered him, that there be no gatherings when I come.
