The New Life In Christ: Now about food sacrificed to idols: We know that we all possess knowledge. Knowledge puffs, but love builds up. 1Corinthians 8:1.

But not everyone knows this. Some people are still so accustomed to idols that when they eat each food they think of it as having been sacrificed to an idol, and since their conscience is weak, it is defiled.

But food does not bring is near to God; we are no worse if we do not eat, and no better if we do.

Be careful, however, that the exercise of your freedom does not become a stumbling block to the weak.

So this weak brother, for whom Christ died, is destroyed by your knowledge. When you sin against your brothers in this way and wound their weak conscience, you sin against Christ. 1Corinthians 8:7-9 &  8:11-12. Amen.
