I speak as to wise men. Judge what I say.
Therefore, my beloved, flee from idolatry.
The cup of blessing which we bless, isn't it a communion of the blood of Messiah? The bread which we break, isn't it a communion of the body of Messiah?
Judge for yourselves. Is it appropriate that a woman pray to God unveiled?
Brothers, don't be children in thoughts, yet in malice be babies, but in thoughts be mature.
We are fools for Messiah's sake, but you are wise in Messiah. We are weak, but you are strong. You have honor, but we have dishonor.
I say this to move you to shame. Isn't there even one wise man among you who would be able to decide between his brothers?
Now concerning things sacrificed to idols: We know that we all have knowledge. Knowledge puffs up, but love builds up.
Test all things, and hold firmly that which is good.
