  • 1 Cor 10:18-33 : 18 Consider the people of Israel. Are not those who eat the sacrifices participants in the altar? 19 What am I saying then?

Are we stronger than He is? 23 Everything is permissible, but not everything is beneficial. Everything is permissible, but not everything builds up. 24 No one should seek their own good, but the good of others. 25 Eat anything sold in the meat market without raising questions of conscience. 26 For the earth is the Lord's, and everything in it. 27 If an unbeliever invites you to a meal and you want to go, eat whatever is placed before you without raising questions of conscience. 28 But if someone says to you, 'This has been offered in sacrifice,' then do not eat it, for the sake of the one who told you and for the sake of conscience. 29 I do not mean your own conscience, but that of the other person's. For why is my freedom judged by another’s conscience? 30 If I partake with thankfulness, why am I denounced because of what I give thanks for? 31 So whether you eat or drink or whatever you do, do it all for the glory of God. 32 Do not cause anyone to stumble, whether Jews, Greeks, or the church of God. 33 Just as I also try to please everyone in all things, not seeking my own benefit but the benefit of many, so that they may be saved.
