- 4. As concerning therefore the eating of those things that are offered in sacrifice vnto idoles, wee know that an idole is nothing in the world, and that there is none other God but one.
- 5. For though there bee that are called gods, whether in heauen or in earth (as there be gods many, and lords many:)
- 6. But to vs there is but one God, the Father, of whom are all things, and we in him, and one Lord Iesus Christ, by whom are all things, and we by him.
- 7. Howbeit there is not in euerie man that knowledge: for some with conscience of the idole vnto this houre, eate it as a thing offred vnto an idole, and their conscience being weake, is defiled.
- 8. But meate commendeth vs not to God: for neither if we eate, are we the better: neither if wee eate not, are we the worse.

- 11. And through thy knowledge shal the weake brother perish, for whome Christ died?
- 12. But when ye sinne so against the brethren, and wound their weake conscience, ye sinne against Christ.
- 13. Wherefore if meate make my brother to offend, I will eat no flesh while the world standeth, lest I make my brother to offend.
