1 Corinthians 8:12 in Context — 1 Corinthians 8

10 Car, si quelqu’un te voit, toi qui as de la connaissance, assis à table dans un temple d’idoles, sa conscience, à lui qui est faible, ne le portera-t-elle pas à manger des viandes sacrifiées aux idoles?

11 Et ainsi le faible périra par ta connaissance, le frère pour lequel Christ est mort!

12 En péchant de la sorte contre les frères, et en blessant leur conscience faible, vous péchez contre Christ.
