Can we do anything we want? No! And this is Paul’s point in chapter 8. If a weaker believer sees another believer eating in the food court at the pagan temple, they may believe it is OK for them to do the same thing, but in doing so, they have violated their conscience because they believe it is a sin to eat meat that was used in a pagan sacrifice, which Paul says is a sin. Not only is it a sin for the one violating their conscience, it is a sin by the one who caused the weaker believer to stumble!

Paul explains to the church that he, along with Peter, Apollos, and any other teacher that came to the church to speak, is nothing. They are all laborers that have a job—to plant and water seed.
