And through thy knowledge shall the weak brother perish, for whom Christ hath died?
For if, because of thy meat, thy brother be grieved, thou walkest not now according to charity. Destroy not him with thy meat, for whom Christ died.
Wherefore, if meat scandalize my brother, I will never eat flesh, lest I should scandalize my brother.
As I also in all things please all men, not seeking that which is profitable to myself, but to many, that may be saved.
Labour not for the meat which perisheth, but for that which endureth unto life everlasting, which the Son of man will give you. For him hath God, the Father, sealed.
But as for the meats that are sacrificed to idols, we know that an idol is nothing in the world, and that there is no God but one.
