For although being free from all men, I made myself a servant to all, so that I might gain the more. And to the Jews I became as a Jew, so that I might gain Jews, to those under law, as under law, so that I might gain those under law, to those without law, as without law (not being without law to God, but within law to Christ), so that I might gain men without law.read more.
To the weak I became as weak, so that I might gain the weak. I have become all things to all men, so that by all means I might save some. And I do this for sake of the good-news, so that I might become a fellow participant of it.

For it was decided by the Holy Spirit, and by us, to lay upon you not one greater burden than these necessary things:

So then we should pursue the things of peace, and the things of constructiveness for each other. Do not tear down the work of God because of food. All things indeed are clean, but it is wrong to the man who eats through hindrance. It is good not to eat meats, nor to drink wine, nor in whatever thy brother stumbles against, or is caused to stumble, or becomes weak.

Now we the strong ought to bear the weaknesses of the frail, and not to please ourselves. Let each of us please his neighbor for what is good toward edification.
