1 Corinthians 8:7-9

International Standard Version

⁷ But not everyone has this knowledge. Some people are so accustomed to idolatry that when they eat food that has been offered to an idol, their conscience becomes contaminated because it is weak. ⁸ However, food will not bring us closer to God. We are no worse off if we do not eat food that has been offered to an idol,^[a] and no better off if we do.

⁹ But you must see to it that this right of yours does not become a stumbling block for those who are weak.
