1 Corinthians 8:1-3

Knowledge vs. Love

1 Corinthians 8:1-3

Knowledge vs. Love

1
Now concerning those things that are sacrificed to idols: we know we all have knowledge. Knowledge puffeth up: but charity edifieth.
2
And if any man think that he knoweth any thing, he hath not yet known as he ought to know.
3
But if any man love God, the same is known by him.
