1 Corinthians 8:7 in context
- 5For though there be that are called gods, whether in heaven or on earth; as there are gods many, and lords many;
- 6yet 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.
- 7Howbeit 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.
- 8But food will not commend us to God: neither, if we eat not, are we the worse; nor, if we eat, are we the better.
- 9But take heed lest by any means this liberty of yours become a stumblingblock to the weak.
