To abstain from meats offered to idols.1 ¶ Nowº as touchingº things offered unto idols,º we knowºª thatº we allº haveºª knowledge.º Knowledgeº puffeth up,ºª butº charityº edifieth.ºª 2 Andº if² any man¹² thinkºª that he knowethºª any thing,º he knowethºª nothingº yetº asº he oughtºª to know.ºª 3 Butº if² any man¹² loveºª God,º the sameº is knownºª ofº him.º 4 As concerningº thereforeº the² eatingº of those things that are offered in sacrifice unto idols,º we knowºª that¹² an idolº [is] nothingº inº the world,º andº thatº [there is] noneº otherº Godº butº one.º 5 Forº thoughºº there beºª that are calledºª gods,º whetherº inº heavenº orº inº earth,º (asº there beºª godsº many,º andº lordsº many,)º 6 Butº to usº [there is but] oneº God,º the² Father,º ofº whomº [are] all things,º andº weº inº him;º andº oneº Lordº Jesusº Christ,º byº whomº [are] all things,º andº weº byº him.º 7 Howbeitº [there is] notº inº every manº that knowledge:º forº someº with conscienceº of the² idolº untoº this hourº eatºª [it] asº a thing offered unto an idol;º andº their¹² conscience¹² beingºª weakº is defiled.ºª [1] Nu 25:2; Is 5:21; 47:10; Ac 15:10, 19, 29; 21:25; Ro 11:25; 12:16; 14:3, 10, 14, 22; 1Co 1:5; 4:10, 18; 5:2, 6; 8:2, 4, 7, 10, 11; 10:19, 28; 13:1, 2, 4; 14:20; 15:34; Ep 4:16; Col 2:18; Rv 2:14, 20.
