Whether therefore ye eat or drink, or whatever ye do, do all to the glory of God. Give no occasion of stumbling either to Jews or Greeks, or to the church of God; as I also strive to please all in all things, not seeking my own advantage, but that of the many; that they may be saved.
But there is not in all men this knowledge; for some, with a conscience directed toward the idol even now, eat of it as a thing offered in sacrifice to an idol, and their conscience, being weak, is defiled.

And when he had gone into the house from the crowd, his disciples asked him concerning the parable. And he saith to them, Are ye too so without discernment? Do ye not understand that whatever thing from without entereth into a man, cannot defile him? because it entereth not into his heart, but into the stomach; and goeth out into the drain, which cleanseth all kinds of food. read more.
And he said, That which cometh out of a man, that defileth a man. For from within, out of the heart of men, come forth evil thoughts, fornications, thefts, murders, adulteries, covetousness, iniquities, deceit, wantonness, an evil eye, blasphemy, pride, foolishness. All these evil things come from within, and defile a man.
For we know that the Law is spiritual; but I am unspiritual, a slave sold to sin. For I know not what I do. For I do not what I would, but I do what I hate. But if I do what I would not, I assent to the Law that it is good. read more.
Now, however, it is no longer I that do it, but sin that dwelleth in me. For I know that there dwelleth not in me, that is, in my flesh, any good thing; for to desire is present with me, but not to perform that which is good. For the good that I would, I do not; but the evil which I would not, that I do. But if I do what I would not, it is no more I that do it, but sin that dwelleth in me. I find then that there is a law to me, that when I would do good, evil is present with me. For I delight in the Law of God, as to the inward man; but I perceive another law in my members warring against the law of my mind, and bringing me into captivity to the law of sin which is in my members.

So then ye may know them by their fruits.
The good man, from his good treasure, bringeth out good things; and the evil man, from his evil treasure, bringeth out evil things.
For there is no good tree that beareth bad fruit; and again, there is no bad tree that beareth good fruit. For every tree is known by its own fruit; for from thorns men do not gather figs, nor from a bramblebush do they gather grapes. The good man out of the good treasure of his heart bringeth forth that which is good; and the evil man out of the evil treasure bringeth forth that which is evil; for out of the abundance of his heart his mouth speaketh.

Who ever serveth as a soldier at his own charges? Who planteth a vineyard without eating its fruit? Or who tendeth a flock and doth not eat of the milk of the flock? Is it on mans authority that I am saying these things, or doth not the Law too say the same? For it is written in the law of Moses: "Thou shalt not muzzle an ox while treading out grain." Is it for oxen that God careth? read more.
Or doth he say it altogether on our account? On our account, no doubt, it was written, that he who plougheth ought to plough in hope, and that he who thrasheth should do it in the hope of partaking. If we have sown to you spiritual things, is it a great thing if we reap from you things for the body? If others possess this right in relation to you, do not we still more? But we have not used this right; but we submit to all things, that we may occasion no hindrance to the gospel of Christ. Do ye not know, that they who minister in the offerings of the temple live from the temple? that they who serve at the altar share with the altar? In like manner also did the Lord ordain that they who preach the gospel should live from the gospel. But I have used no right of this kind; nor have I written thus that anything of this kind should be done for me; for it were better for me to die, than that any one should take from me what I glory in. For in preaching the gospel, I have nothing to glory in; for I am under a necessity to do so; yea, woe is to me, if I preach not the gospel! For if I do this willingly, I have a reward; but if unwillingly, still I have been intrusted with a stewardship. What then is my reward? It is that, when I preach the gospel, I may make the gospel free of charge, that I use not to the full my right as a preacher of the gospel. For being free from all men, yet I made myself a servant to all, that I might gain the more; and to the Jews I became as a Jew, that I might gain Jews; to those under the Law, as under the Law, not being myself under the Law, that I might gain those under the Law; to those without the Law, as without the Law, being not without a law before God, but under the law of Christ, that I might gain those without the Law; to the weak I became weak, that I might gain the weak; I have become all things to all, that I might by all means save some. And I do all for the sake of the gospel, that I may with others partake of it.
