This is the fourth in a sermon series based on 1 Corinthians 13’s treatise on love and titled, “Love, Always.” Today’s reading from 1 Corinthians 8 is a bit confusing, in part because it is addressed to a church in a multi-layered society where it was okay to eat meat that had been sacrificed to idols. Although Paul says it is fine to eat that meat and explains why, he also says that it might be harmful to those believers who firmly believe it is not right to do so. In essence, to consider others puts love first.
