All About GOD - Growing Relationships with Jesus and Others

1 Cor 8

1 Corinthians 8:1 King James Version (KJV)
8 Now as touching things offered unto idols, we know that we all have knowledge. Knowledge puffeth up, but charity edifieth.

1 Corinthians 8:1 Wycliffe Bible (WYC)

8 But of these things that be sacrificed to idols, we know, for all we have knowing. But knowing bloweth, charity edifieth [Soothly science, or knowing, in-bloweth with pride, charity edifieth].

Wycliffe Bible (WYC) 2001 by Terence P. Noble

These are my thoughts.
We should act in love with using our knowledge and not use knowledge without love.

1 Corinthians 8:12 King James Version (KJV)

¹²But when ye sin so against the brethren, and wound their weak conscience, ye sin against Christ.

1 Corinthians 8:12 Complete Jewish Bible (CJB)

¹²and so, when you sin against the brothers by wounding their conscience when it is weak, you are sinning against the Messiah!

These are my thoughts.

To sin against each other, to cause one of the church to stumble is sin against not just them but against the Lord.

1 Corinthians 8:13 King James Version (KJV)
13 Wherefore, if meat make my brother to offend, I will eat no flesh while the world standeth, lest I make my brother to offend.

1 Corinthians 8:13 Complete Jewish Bible (CJB)

13 To sum up, if food will be a snare for my brother, I will never eat meat again, lest I cause my brother to sin.

These are my thoughts.
If things can be avoided so that people don’t fall away that is exactly what we need to do, we should be willing to sacrifice so that other believers can grow and not stumble.

1 Corinthians 9:1 King James Version (KJV)

9 Am I am not an apostle? am I not free? have I not seen Jesus Christ our Lord? are not ye my work in the Lord?

1 Corinthians 9:1 Complete Jewish Bible (CJB)

9 Am I not a free man? Am I not an emissary of the Messiah? Haven’t I seen Yeshua our Lord? And aren’t you yourselves the result of my work for the Lord?

These are my thoughts.
People may question both us and how the Lord has used us.
