Welcome Church! Today we are reading I Corinthians Chapter 8. Happy
Father's Day!! Now Paul turns to another important question: is it
okay for Christians to eat meat that has been sacrificed to Roman
gods? Okay, this is a thorny issue…The Corinthians have told him
that they think this is fine. After all, there's only one God and
one Jesus, so those other gods aren't even real. No gods, no foul,
right? Yeah, Paul tells them, that's pretty much right—but they
shouldn't get too high and mighty about it. Go on…Even though
they're right about those gods not existing, not all Christians
fully understand this yet. Hey, there will always be slow learners
in any group. There might be Corinthian Christians out there who
still believe these gods are real. That means they're actually
committing idolatry in their hearts when they eat this sacrificed
meat. And everyone knows that God does not like idolatry. So, Paul
concludes, it really isn't the best idea to tell everyone to help
themselves to the Roman buffets just yet. In fact, he kind of
wishes that everyone would just swear off this meat—like he does—so
that they could all stop arguing about it. What's better? Having a
little bacon everyone now and then or hurting your fellow
Christians? (Hint: the answer is not bacon.) Thanks to
