Thematic Bible: Should avoid giving unnecessary offence
Thematic Bible
Ministers » Should avoid giving unnecessary offence
we put no obstruction in anyone’s path, so that the ministry will not be discredited,
Do not let yourselves be [hindrances by giving] an offense to the Jews or to the Greeks or to the church of God [ do not lead others into sin by your mode of life]; Just as I myself strive to please [to accommodate myself to the opinions, desires, and interests of others, adapting myself to] all men in everything I do, not aiming at or considering my own profit and advantage, but that of the many in order that they may be saved.
