'Conscience' in the Bible
but not in all men is the knowledge, and certain with conscience of the idol, till now, as a thing sacrificed to an idol do eat it, and their conscience, being weak, is defiled.
for if any one may see thee that hast knowledge in an idol's temple reclining at meat -- shall not his conscience -- he being infirm -- be emboldened to eat the things sacrificed to idols,
and thus sinning in regard to the brethren, and smiting their weak conscience -- in regard to Christ ye sin;
Whatever in the meat-market is sold eat ye, not inquiring, because of the conscience,
and if any one of the unbelieving do call you, and ye wish to go, all that is set before you eat, nothing inquiring, because of the conscience;
and if any one may say to you, 'This is a thing sacrificed to an idol,' -- do not eat, because of that one who shewed it, and of the conscience, for the Lord's is the earth and its fulness:
and conscience, I say, not of thyself, but of the other, for why is it that my liberty is judged by another's conscience?
