a 1 Corinthians 8:1-13 (Now concerning food sacrificed to idols: we know
that “all of us possess knowledge.” Knowledge puffs up, but love builds up.
Anyone who claims to know something does not yet have the necessary
knowledge, but anyone who loves God is known by him…)
1 Corinthians 3:19, Proverbs 14:7-8

b Galatians 2:6 (And from those who were supposed to be acknowledged
leaders [what they actually were makes no difference to me; God shows no
partiality] - those leaders contributed nothing to me.)
Ecclesiastes 9:1-2, Ecclesiastes 12:13-14, Matthew 5:43-48

c 1 Corinthians 8:7-8 (It is not everyone, however, who has this knowledge.
Since some have become so accustomed to idols until now, they still think
of the food they eat as food offered to an idol; and their conscience, being
weak, is defiled...)
Exodus 32:18-21

d Psalm 131:1-3 (O Lord, my heart is not lifted up, my eyes are not raised
too high; I do not occupy myself with things too great and too marvelous for
me. But I have calmed and quieted my soul, like a weaned child with its
mother; my soul is like the weaned child that is with me. O Israel, hope in
the Lord from this time on and forevermore.)

e Isaiah 48:18-19 (O that you had paid attention to my commandments!
Then your prosperity would have been like a river, and your success like the
waves of the sea; your offspring would have been like the sand, and your
descendants like its grains; their name would never be cut off or destroyed
from before me.)
Psalm 107:23-30, John 3:8

f John 15:18-19 (“If the world hates you, be aware that it hated me before it
hated you. If you belonged to the world, the world would love you as its own.
Because you do not belong to the world, but I have chosen you out of the
world - therefore the world hates you.)
1 John 2:15-17, 1 Corinthians 4:1-20
