Take Care with Your Liberty
-
|1 Coríntios 8:1| Now about food sacrificed to idols, we know that we all have knowledge[concerning this] . Knowledge[alone] makes[people self-righteously] arrogant, but love[that unselfishly seeks the best for others] builds up and encourages others to grow[in wisdom] .
-
|1 Coríntios 8:2| If anyone imagines that he knows and understands anything[of divine matters, without love] , he has not yet known as he ought to know.
-
|1 Coríntios 8:3| But if anyone loves God[with awe-filled reverence, obedience and gratitude] , he is known by Him[as His very own and is greatly loved] .
-
|1 Coríntios 8:4| In this matter, then, of eating food offered to idols, we know that an idol is nothing in the world[it has no real existence] , and that there is no God but one.
-
|1 Coríntios 8:5| For even if there are so-called gods, whether in heaven or on earth, as indeed there are many gods and many lords,
-
|1 Coríntios 8:6| yet for us there is but one God, the Father,1 who is the source of all things, and we exist for Him; and one Lord, Jesus Christ, by whom are all things[that have been created] , and we[believers exist and have life and have been redeemed] through Him.
-
|1 Coríntios 8:7| However, not all[believers] have this knowledge. But some, being accustomed[throughout their lives] to[thinking of] the idol until now[as real and living] , still eat food2 as if it were sacrificed to an idol; and because their conscience is weak, it is defiled (guilty, ashamed).
-
|1 Coríntios 8:8| Now food will not commend us to God nor bring us close to Him; we are no worse off if we do not eat, nor are we better if we do eat.
-
|1 Coríntios 8:9| Only be careful that this liberty of yours[this power to choose] does not somehow become a stumbling block[that is, a temptation to sin] to the weak[in conscience] .
-
|1 Coríntios 8:10| For if someone sees you, a person having3 knowledge,4 eating in an idol's temple, then if he is weak, will he not be encouraged to eat things sacrificed to idols[and violate his own convictions] ?
