For if I by grace am a partaker, why is evil spoken about me concerning that for which I give thanks?read more.
Whether you eat, or drink, or whatever you do, do everything to the glory of God.

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