1 Corinthians 8:8-13

Goodspeed(i) 8 But food is not going to affect our standing with God. We are none the worse if we do not eat it, and none the better if we do. 9 But you must take care that this right of yours does not prove a hindrance to the overscrupulous. 10 For if somebody sees you, who are intelligent about this matter, attending a dinner in an idol's temple, will not he, with his sensitive conscience, be led to eat meat that is offered to idols? 11 For this overscrupulous brother, for whom Christ died, is ruined by what you call your knowledge. 12 But in sinning against your brothers in this way and wounding their too scrupulous consciences, you are really sinning against Christ. 13 Therefore, if what I eat makes my brother fall, I will never eat meat again, rather than make my brother fall.
