we know that an idol is nothing in the world, and that there is no God but one. For though there be that are called gods, whether in heaven or on earth, (as there are many gods and many lords) Yet to us there is but one God, the Father from whom are all things, and we for him; and one Lord, Jesus Christ, by whom are all things, and we by him. But there is not in all men this knowledge; for some do even until now, with consciousness of the idol, eat it as sacrificed to the idol, and their conscience, being weak, is defiled. But meat commendeth us not to God; for neither if we eat, are we the better, nor if we eat not, are we the worse. But take heed, lest by any means this your liberty become a stumbling-block to the weak. For if any one see thee, who hast knowledge, sitting at meat in an idol-temple, will not the conscience of him that is weak be encouraged to eat of the things sacrificed to the idol? And through thy knowledge shall the weak brother perish, for whom Christ died. But when ye sin thus against your 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.

For we, being many, are one bread, and one body; for we are all partakers of the one bread. Consider Israel after the flesh. Are not they who eat of the sacrifices, partakers of the altar? What say I then? That a thing sacrificed to idols is any thing? or that an idol is any thing? But that what the heathens sacrifice, they sacrifice to devils, and not to God. Now I would not that ye should be partakers with devils. Ye cannot drink the cup of the Lord, and the cup of devils; ye cannot be partakers of the table of the Lord, and the table of devils. Do we provoke the Lord to jealousy? are we stronger than he? All things are lawful for me; but all things are not expedient; all things are lawful for me; but all things edify not. Let no one seek his own, but every one another's welfare. Whatever is sold in the shambles eat, asking no questions for conscience sake. For the earth is the Lord's, and the fulness thereof. And if any of the unbelievers invite you, and ye are disposed to go, eat whatever is set before you, asking no questions for conscience sake. But if any one say to you, This hath been sacrificed to an idol, eat not, for his sake that shewed thee, and for conscience sake. Conscience I say, not thy own, but that of the other: for why is my liberty judged by another's conscience? For if I by grace am a partaker, why am I blamed for that for which I give thanks? Therefore whether ye eat or drink, or whatsoever ye do, do all to the glory of God. Give no offence either to the Jews, or to the Gentiles, or to the church of God: Even as I please all men in all things, not seeking my own profit, but that of many that they may be saved.
