1 Corinthians 10:18-31
-
18 Behold Israel after the flesh: are not they which eat of the sacrifices partakers of the altar?
-
19 What say I then? that the idol is any thing, or that which is offered in sacrifice to idols is any thing?
-
20 But I say, that the things which the Gentiles sacrifice, they sacrifice to devils, and not to God: and I would not that ye should have fellowship with devils.
-
21 Ye cannot drink the cup of the Lord, and the cup of devils: ye cannot be partakers of the Lord's table, and of the table of devils.
-
22 Do we provoke the Lord to jealousy? are we stronger than he?
-
23 All things are lawful for me, but all things are not expedient: all things are lawful for me, but all things edify not.
-
24 Let no man seek his own, but every man another's wealth.
-
25 Whatsoever is sold in the shambles, that eat, asking no question for conscience sake:
-
26 For the earth is the Lord's, and the fulness thereof.
-
27 If any of them that believe not bid you to a feast, and ye be disposed to go; whatsoever is set before you, eat, asking no question for conscience sake.
-
28 But if any man say unto you, This is offered in sacrifice unto idols, eat not for his sake that shewed it, and for conscience sake: for the earth is the Lord's, and the fulness thereof:
-
29 Conscience, I say, not thine own, but of the other: for why is my liberty judged of another man's conscience?
-
30 For if I by grace be a partaker, why am I evil spoken of for that for which I give thanks?
-
31 Whether therefore ye eat, or drink, or whatsoever ye do, do all to the glory of God.
