1 Corinthians 8:8-13 But food will not commend us to God; neither if we should eat do we come short, nor if we should not eat, do we have an advantage.

BLB⁽ⁱ⁾ ⁸ But food will not commend us to God; neither if we should eat do we come short, nor if we should not eat, do we have an advantage. ⁹ But be careful, lest somehow this right of yours becomes an occasion of stumbling to those being weak. ¹⁰ For if anyone sees you, having knowledge, eating in an idol’s temple, will not his conscience, being weak, be built up so as to eat the things sacrificed to idols? ¹¹ For the one being weak is destroyed through your knowledge—the brother for whom Christ died. ¹² And thus sinning against the brothers and wounding their being weak conscience, you sin against Christ. ¹³ Therefore, if food snares my brother, never shall not I eat meat to the age, so that I might not snare my brother.
