1 Corinthians 10:23-33

23“Everything is lawful,” but not everything is beneficial. “Everything is lawful,” but not everything builds others up.

24Do not seek your own good, but the good of the other person.

25Eat anything that is sold in the marketplace without questions of conscience,

26for the earth and its abundance are the Lord’s.

27If an unbeliever invites you to dinner and you want to go, eat whatever is served without asking questions of conscience.

28But if someone says to you, “This is from a sacrifice,” do not eat, because of the one who told you and because of conscience –

29I do not mean yours but the other person’s. For why is my freedom being judged by another’s conscience?

30If I partake with thankfulness, why am I blamed for the food that I give thanks for?

31So whether you eat or drink, or whatever you do, do everything for the glory of God.

32Do not give offense to Jews or Greeks or to the church of God,

33just as I also try to please everyone in all things. I do not seek my own benefit, but the benefit of many, so that they may be saved.
