1 Corinthians 8

Verses of 1 Corinthians 8 of the ASV from the book of the bible

KJV ASV NIV NKJV

1 - Now concerning things sacrificed to idols: We know that we all have knowledge. Knowledge puffeth up, but love edifieth.
2 - If any man thinketh that he knoweth anything, he knoweth not yet as he ought to know;
3 - but if any man loveth God, the same is known by him.
4 - Concerning therefore the eating of things sacrificed to idols, we know that no idol is `anything' in the world, and that there is no God but one.
5 - For though there be that are called gods, whether in heaven or on earth; as there are gods many, and lords many;
6 - yet to us there is one God, the Father, of whom are all things, and we unto him; and one Lord, Jesus Christ, through whom are all things, and we through him.
7 - Howbeit there is not in all men that knowledge: but some, being used until now to the idol, eat as `of' a thing sacrificed to an idol; and their conscience being weak is defiled.
8 - But food will not commend us to God: neither, if we eat not, are we the worse; nor, if we eat, are we the better.
9 - But take heed lest by any means this liberty of yours become a stumblingblock to the weak.
10 - For if a man see thee who hast knowledge sitting at meat in an idol's temple, will not his conscience, if he is weak, be emboldened to eat things sacrificed to idols?
11 - For through thy knowledge he that is weak perisheth, the brother for whose sake Christ died.
12 - And thus, sinning against the brethren, and wounding their conscience when it is weak, ye sin against Christ.
13 - Wherefore, if meat causeth my brother to stumble, I will eat no flesh for evermore, that I cause not my brother to stumble.
