Day 28 in the Word: 1 Corinthians 8:4-6

About the passage

Paul calls out the power of the dead gods vs the power of the true living God. He neutralizes the value of an inanimate object because it simply has no power. What powerless thing has a hold on you?

Day 28: 1 Corinthians 8: 4-6

So, what about eating meat that has been offered to idols? Well, we all know that an idol is not really a god and that there is only one God. There may be so-called gods both in heaven and on earth, and some people actually worship many gods and many lords. But for us,

There is one God, the Father, by whom all things were created, and for whom we live. And there is one Lord, Jesus Christ, through whom all things were created, and through whom we live.
