Now concerning sacrifices to idols: We know that we all have knowledge. Knowledge puffs up, but love builds up.

And if anyone thinks that he knows anything, he knows nothing yet as he ought to know.

Rather, that the things which the Gentiles sacrifice they sacrifice to demons and not to God, and I do not want you to have fellowship with demons.

You cannot drink the cup of the Lord and the cup of demons; you cannot partake of the Lord's table and of the table of demons.

And they invited the people to the sacrifices of their gods, and the people ate and bowed down to their gods.

And they went out into the fields, and gathered grapes from their vineyards and trod them, and rejoiced. And they went into the house of their god, and ate and drank, and cursed Abimelech.

And they lie down beside every altar on garments taken in pledge, and drink the wine of those being punished in the house of their God.

But if anyone says to you, This was offered to idols, do not eat it for the sake of the one who informed you, and because of conscience; for the earth is the Lord's, and all its fullness.

Conscience, I say, not your own, but that of the other. For why is my liberty judged by another's conscience?

Do not become a cause of stumbling, either to the Jews or to the Greeks or to the church of God,

I know and am convinced by the Lord Jesus that there is nothing unclean of itself; but to him who considers anything to be unclean, to him it is unclean.

But he who doubts is condemned if he eats, because it is not out of faith; for whatever is not out of faith is sin.
