1 Corinthians 8:7

Made Simple — Modern English Translation

Translated by Verse Made Simple Editorial
KJV ORIGINAL
Howbeit there is not in every man that knowledge: for some with conscience of the idol unto this hour eat it as a thing offered unto an idol; and their conscience being weak is defiled.
Close to the original. Clear modern English.
✦ MADE SIMPLE

But not everyone gets this yet. Some people still feel weird about eating food that was offered to idols because their past is still messing with their head. When they eat it, their conscience feels guilty and that hurts them spiritually.

⚡ THE BOTTOM LINE

Not everyone's at the same place in their faith journey, and that's okay — we all have different baggage to work through.
