All things are lawful to me, but not all things profit. All things are lawful for me, but I will not be brought under the power of any.

And this I speak for your own profit, not that I may cast a snare on you, but for that which is right, and that you may attend on the Lord without distraction.

All things are lawful to me, but not all things profit. All things are lawful to me, but not all things build up.

even as I please all men in all things, not seeking my own profit, but the profit of the many, so that they may be saved.

But to each one is given the showing forth of the Spirit to our profit.

But now, brothers, if I come to you speaking in tongues, what will I profit you, except I speak to you either in revelation, or in knowledge, or in prophecy, or in teaching?

If anyone thinks to be a prophet, or a spiritual one, let him recognize the things I write to you, that they are a commandment of the Lord.
