1 Now I will write about the meat of the sacrifice that is offered to idols. We know that “we all have knowledge.” Knowledge fills you with pride. But love helps you to be stronger than others.
1 Corinthians 8: 1
2 A person who thinks he knows something does not know what he should know.
1 Corinthians 8: 2
3 But he that loveth God knoweth not God;
1 Corinthians 8: 3
4 Wherefore I say unto them, This is the law of the flesh: for we know that idolatry is nothing in the world. We also know that there is one and only God.
1 Corinthians 8: 4
5 It doesn’t really matter that some things on earth and in the sky are called gods. Many people call such things “gods” or “lords.”
1 Corinthians 8: 5
6 But we have only one God. He is our Father. Everything has come from Him and we live only for Him. There is only one Lord. He is Jesus Christ. All things are created through him, and we also live through him.
1 Corinthians 8: 6
7 But not all people know this. Some people are still in the habit of worshiping idols. So when they eat this meat, they feel like it belongs to an idol. They don’t know if it’s okay to eat this meat. So when they eat this meat, they think they are doing something wrong.
1 Corinthians 8: 7
8 But food does not bring us closer to God. By not eating meat, we do not lose anything or by eating, we do not gain anything.
1 Corinthians 8: 8
9 But be careful about your freedom. Your own faith can make weak people sin.
1 Corinthians 8: 9
10 You have understanding, so you feel free to eat in the temple of idols. A person with a weak faith may see you eating there. This will also encourage him to eat the meat offered to the idols. But he actually misunderstands it.
1 Corinthians 8:10
11 So this weak brother can be destroyed because of your knowledge. And Christ was sacrificed for this brother.
1 Corinthians 8:11
12 When you cause your brothers and sisters in Christ to do something they think is wrong, you are sinning against them and hurting them. Then you are also sinning against Christ.
1 Corinthians 8:12
13 Therefore I will never again eat the flesh that I have caused my brother to sin. I will stop eating meat so that I will not let my brother and sister fall into sin.
1 Corinthians 8:13

8 But my dear friends. Don’t forget this one thing. For the Lord a day is like a thousand years, and a thousand years is like a day.
2 Peter 3: 8
9 The Lord is not slow to do what he promises, as some people think. But God is patient with you. God does not want anyone to be destroyed. He wants everyone to change and stop sinning.
2 Peter 3: 9
10 The coming of the Lord will be as wonderful as a thief coming. With a loud voice the sky will disappear and everything in the sky will be destroyed by fire. The earth and everything on it will be burned.
2 Peter 3:10
11 In this way, as I have told you, everything will be destroyed. So think about what kind of people you should be. You must live a holy life and talk about serving God.
2 Peter 3:11
12 You must wait for the day of the Lord, and look forward to it. When that day comes, the sky will be destroyed by fire, and everything in it will melt because of the heat.
2 Peter 3:12
13 But as God promised, we are waiting for new heavens and a new earth where righteousness will dwell.
2 Peter 3:13
