However, this knowledge is not in all [people]; rather some, with consciousness of the idol, until now eat it as [something] offered to idols; and their conscience, being weak, is defiled.

Consequently the [one] resisting the authority has opposed the ordinance of God, and those opposing shall receive judgment to themselves.

For he that eats and drinks irreverently eats and drinks judgment to himself, not judging correctly the body of the Lord.

For if we judge ourselves correctly, we would not be judged.

All things indeed are pure to the pure; but to those who are defiled and unbelieving nothing is pure; but even their mind and conscience have been defiled.

But without faith it is impossible to please [God], for it is necessary [for] the [one] approaching God to believe that He is, and that He becomes a rewarder of those who diligently seek Him.
