1 Corinthians 8:5-9

1 Corinthians 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 Corinthians 8:6

yet for us there is only one God, the Father, from whom are all things, and we exist for Him; and one Lord, Jesus Christ, by whom are all things, and we exist through Him.

1 Corinthians 8:7

However, not all people have this knowledge; but some, being accustomed to the idol until now, eat food as if it were sacrificed to an idol; and their conscience, being weak, is defiled.

1 Corinthians 8:8

Now food will not bring us close to God; we are neither the worse if we do not eat, nor the better if we do eat.

1 Corinthians 8:9

But take care that this freedom of yours does not somehow become a stumbling block to the weak.
