1 Corinthians 10:28-33

28But if anyone says to you, “This meat has been offered in sacrifice to an idol,” do not eat it, out of consideration for the one who told you, and for conscience’s sake—

29and by conscience I mean for the sake of the other man’s, not yours. For why is my freedom [of choice] judged by another’s conscience [another’s ethics—another’s sense of right and wrong]?

30If I take my share [of food] with thankfulness, why am I accused because of something for which I give thanks?

31So then, whether you eat or drink or whatever you do, do all to the glory of [our great] God.

32Do not offend Jews or Greeks or even the church of God [but live to honor Him];

33just as I please everyone in all things [as much as possible adapting myself to the interests of others], not seeking my own benefit but that of the many, so that they [will be open to the message of salvation and] may be saved.
