1 Corinthians 8:7-13

7But that knowledge is not in everyone—some, so accustomed to idols up until now, eat food as an idol sacrifice; and their conscience, being weak, is defiled.

8But food will not bring us before God. We are no worse off if we do not eat and no better off if we do eat.

9But watch out that this freedom of yours does not somehow become a stumbling block to the weak.

10For suppose someone sees you—who have this knowledge—dining in an idol’s temple. If his conscience is weak, won’t he be emboldened to eat idol sacrifices?

11For the one who is weak is destroyed by your knowledge—the brother for whom Messiah died.

12In this way, when you sin against the brothers and sisters and wound their conscience when it is weak, you sin against Messiah.

13For this reason, if food causes my brother to stumble, I will never eat meat again, so that I do not cause my brother to stumble.
