1.Cor8,1 Now about food sacrificed to idols: > Paul is going like through a list of questions.We know that we all possess knowledge. > We know, that we all possess knowledge! Funny - we know, that we know. Why is knowing so important. Why is trusting not mor attractive, or loving, or believing. But knowing - wow, we all want to say: I know! Is it the control, what i have, when i know? What ever - what do i know  - nothing...  Knowledge puffs up, but love builds up. > this is awesome - but i don't have much love  2 The man who thinks he knows something does not yet know as he ought to know. > How to really know anything?  3 But the man who loves God is known by God. > Introduction to the topic: 4 So then, about eating food sacrificed to idols: We know that an idol is nothing at all in the world and that there is no God but one. 5 For even if there are so-called gods, whether in heaven or on earth (as indeed there are many gods and many lords), 6 yet for us there is but one God, the Father, from whom all things came and for whom we live; and there is but one Lord, Jesus Christ, through whom all things came and through whom we live. 7 But not everyone knows this. Some people are still so accustomed to idols that when they eat such food they think of it as having been sacrificed to an idol, and since their conscience is weak, it is defiled. 8 But food does not bring us near to God; we are no worse if we do not eat, and no better if we do. 9 Be careful, however, that the exercise of your freedom does not become a stumbling-block to the weak. 10 For if anyone with a weak conscience sees you who have this knowledge eating in an idol's temple,/Denn wenn jemand dich, der du Erkenntnis hast, im Götzentempel zu Tisch liegen sieht/Stell dir nur einmal vor, du nimmst im Tempel eines Götzen an einem Opfermahl teil (wozu du dich aufgrund deiner Erkenntnis berechtigt fühlstwon't he be emboldened to eat what has been sacrificed to idols? 11 So this weak brother, for whom Christ died, is destroyed by your knowledge.12 When you sin against your brothers in this way and wound their weak conscience, you sin against Christ. 13 Therefore, if what I eat causes my brother to fall into sin, I will never eat meat again, so that I will not cause him to fall.
