3 Mais si quelqu’un aime Dieu, celui-là est connu de lui.
4 Pour ce qui est donc de manger des viandes sacrifiées aux idoles, nous savons qu’il n’y a point d’idole dans le monde, et qu’il n’y a qu’un seul Dieu.
5 Car, s’il est des êtres qui sont appelés dieux, soit dans le ciel, soit sur la terre, comme il existe réellement plusieurs dieux et plusieurs seigneurs,
6 néanmoins pour nous il n’y a qu’un seul Dieu, le Père, de qui viennent toutes choses et pour qui nous sommes, et un seul Seigneur, Jésus-Christ, par qui sont toutes choses et par qui nous sommes.
7 Mais cette connaissance n’est pas chez tous. Quelques-uns, d’après la manière dont ils envisagent encore l’idole, mangent de ces viandes comme étant sacrifiées aux idoles, et leur conscience, qui est faible, en est souillée.
