Revelation 2:19 NIV

I know your deeds, your love and faith, your service and perseverance, and that you are now doing more than you did at first.

1 Corinthians 8:4 NIV

So then, about eating food sacrificed to idols: We know that “An idol is nothing at all in the world” and that “There is no God but one.”

1 Corinthians 8

1 Corinthians 10:18–21 NIV

Consider the people of Israel: Do not those who eat the sacrifices participate in the altar? Do I mean then that food sacrificed to an idol is anything, or that an idol is anything? No, but the sacrifices of pagans are offered to demons, not to God, and I do not want you to be participants with demons. You cannot drink the cup of the Lord and the cup of demons too; you cannot have a part in both the Lord’s table and the table of demons.

1 Corinthians 10

Faith is a process, not just a possession.

Be on guard to who has your ear.

We win when we hold on to God.
