1 Corinthians 8:10

Made Simple — Modern English Translation

Translated by Verse Made Simple Editorial
KJV ORIGINAL
For if any man see thee which hast knowledge sit at meat in the idol’s temple, shall not the conscience of him which is weak be emboldened to eat those things which are offered to idols;
Close to the original. Clear modern English.
✦ MADE SIMPLE

Here's the thing — if someone sees you (who clearly knows better) eating at a temple dedicated to fake gods, won't that mess with someone who's still figuring things out? They might think it's totally fine to eat food that was offered to idols, even though their conscience is telling them it's wrong.

⚡ THE BOTTOM LINE

Your freedom might accidentally become someone else's stumbling block.
