1 Corinthians 10:23-33 - Freedom In Christ

23 All things are lawful for me, but all things are not profitable; all things are lawful for me, but all things edify not. 24 Let no man seek his own gratification, but every one another's good.

25 Every thing which is sold in the shambles eat, asking no question for conscience sake; 26 "for the earth is the Lord's, and the fulness thereof." 27 And if any one of those, who do not believe, invite you, and ye incline to go, eat every thing set before you, asking no question for conscience sake. 28 But if any person say unto you, This is an idol's sacrifice, eat not of it, for his sake who pointed it out, and for conscience sake. For the earth is the Lord's, and the fulness thereof. 29 Conscience indeed I say, not merely thine own, but that of the other person. 30 For why is my liberty abridged by another's conscience? If I truly with thanksgiving am a partaker, why am I evil spoken of for that for which I give thanks?

31 Whether therefore ye eat or drink, or whatsoever ye do, do all things to the glory of God. 32 Give no occasion of stumbling either to the Jews or the Gentiles, or the church of God: 33 even as I please all men, not seeking my own advantage, but that of the many, that they may be saved.
