Jesus also reprimands the Christians in Pergamum for 'eating things sacrificed to idols' what would this involve? In view of Paul's words to the Corinthians, perhaps some were abusing their Christian freedom and deliberately offending the consciences of others. More likely, though, they were taking part somehow in actual idol ceremonies. (1 Corinthians 8:4-13 ; 10:25-30) Faithful Christians today must show unselfish love in their exercise of Christians freedom, being careful not to stumble others. Certainly, they must avoid modern forms of idolatry, such as worshipping TV, the movies and sports, or making a god out of money, or even out of their own belly! - MATTHEW 6:24; PHILIPPIANS 1:9, 10; 3:17-19.
