My Bible

Therefore, as to the eating of food offered to idols, we know that "an idol has no real existence," and that "there is no God but one."For although there may be so-called gods in heaven or on earth—as indeed there are many "gods" and many "lords"—

Thus, sinning against your brothers and wounding their conscience when it is weak, you sin against Christ.

highlighted 1 Corinthians 8:7-9 ESV

However, not all possess this knowledge. But some, through former association with idols, eat food as really offered to an idol, and their conscience, being weak, is defiled.Food will not commend us to God. We are no worse off if we do not eat, and no better off if we do.But take care that this right of yours does not somehow become a stumbling block to the weak.

highlighted 1 Corinthians 8:10-11 ESV

For if anyone sees you who have knowledge eating in an idol's temple, will he not be encouraged, if his conscience is weak, to eat food offered to idols?And so by your knowledge this weak person is destroyed, the brother for whom Christ died.

highlighted Romans 10:6-8 ESV

But the righteousness based on faith says, "Do not say in your heart, 'Who will ascend into heaven?'" (that is, to bring Christ down)"or 'Who will descend into the abyss?'" (that is, to bring Christ up from the dead).But what does it say? "The word is near you, in your mouth and in your heart" (that is, the word of faith that we proclaim);

highlighted Romans 10:1-5 ESV

Brothers, my heart's desire and prayer to God for them is that they may be saved.For I bear them witness that they have a zeal for God, but not according to knowledge.For, being ignorant of the righteousness of God, and seeking to establish their own, they did not submit to God's righteousness.For Christ is the end of the law for righteousness to everyone who believes.For Moses writes about the righteousness that is based on the law, that the person who does the commandments shall live by them.

highlighted Romans 10:11-15 ESV

For the Scripture says, "Everyone who believes in him will not be put to shame."For there is no distinction between Jew and Greek; for the same Lord is Lord of all, bestowing his riches on all who call on him.For "everyone who calls on the name of the Lord will be saved."How then will they call on him in whom they have not believed? And how are they to believe in him of whom they have never heard? And how are they to hear without someone preaching?And how are they to preach unless they are sent? As it is written, "How beautiful are the feet of those who preach the good news!"
