7. But there is not knowledge in every one. For some until this present, with conscience of the idol: eat as a thing sacrificed to an idol, and their conscience, being weak, is defiled.
8. But meat doth not commend us to God. For neither, if we eat, shall we have the more; nor, if we eat not, shall we have the less.
9. But take heed lest perhaps this your liberty become a stumblingblock to the weak.
10. For if a man see him that hath knowledge sit at meat in the idol's temple, shall not his conscience, being weak, be emboldened to eat those things which are sacrificed to idols?
11. And through thy knowledge shall the weak brother perish, for whom Christ hath died?
12. Now when you sin thus against the brethren, and wound their weak conscience, you sin against Christ.
13. Wherefore, if meat scandalize my brother, I will never eat flesh, lest I should scandalize my brother.
