CHAP. VIII.
1 To abstaine from meates offered to Idoles: 8. 9 We must not abuse our Christian libertie, to the offence of our brethren: 11 but must bridle our knowledge with Charitie.
2 And if any man thinke that hee knoweth any thing, hee knoweth nothing yet as he ought to know.
3 But if any man loue God, the same is knowen of him.
6 But to vs there is but one God, the Father, of whom are all things, and we in him, and one Lord Iesus Christ, by whom are all things, and we by him.6
8 But meate commendeth vs not to God: for neither if we eate, are we the better: neither if wee eate not, are we the worse.8
9 But take heed lest by any meanes, this libertie of yours become a stumbling blocke to them that are weake.9
10 For if any man see thee which hast knowledge, sit at meat in the idols temple: shall not the conscience of him which is weake, be emboldened to eat those things which are offered to idols?10
11 And through thy knowledge shal the weake brother perish, for whome Christ died?
