1 Corinthians 8:10
Compare all
8 But afood does not commend us to God; for neither if we eat are we the better, nor if we do not eat are we the worse.  
9 But abeware lest somehow this liberty of yours become ba stumbling block to those who are weak.  
10 For if anyone sees you who have knowledge eating in an idol’s temple, will not athe conscience of him who is weak be emboldened to eat those things offered to idols?  
11 And abecause of your knowledge shall the weak brother perish, for whom Christ died?  
12 But awhen you thus sin against the brethren, and wound their weak conscience, you sin against Christ.  
13 Therefore, aif food makes my brother stumble, I will never again eat meat, lest I make my brother stumble.

1 Corinthians 8:10

For if any one see thee who hast knowledge - Whom he believes to have more knowledge than himself, and who really hast this knowledge, that an idol is nothing - sitting down to an entertainment in an idol temple. The heathens frequently made entertainments in their temples, on what hath been sacrificed to their idols. Will not the conscience of him that is weak - Scrupulous. Be encouraged - By thy example. To eat - Though with a doubting conscience.
