1 Corinthians 10 18-1 Corinthians 10 33
Consider the people of Israel. Do not those who eat the sacrifices participate in the altar?What am I saying then? That food sacrificed to idols is anything, or that an idol is anything?No, but I do say that what they sacrifice, they sacrifice to demons and not to God. I do not want you to be participants with demons!You cannot drink the cup of the Lord and the cup of demons. You cannot share in the Lord’s table and the table of demons.Or are we provoking the Lord to jealousy? Are we stronger than he?“ Everything is permissible,” but not everything is beneficial.“ Everything is permissible,” but not everything builds up.No one is to seek his own good, but the good of the other person.Eat everything that is sold in the meat market, without raising questions for the sake of conscience,since the earth is the Lord’s, and all that is in it.If any of the unbelievers invites you over and you want to go, eat everything that is set before you, without raising questions for the sake of conscience.But if someone says to you,“ This is food from a sacrifice,” do not eat it, out of consideration for the one who told you, and for the sake of conscience.I do not mean your own conscience, but the other person’s. For why is my freedom judged by another person’s conscience?If I partake with thanksgiving, why am I criticized because of something for which I give thanks?So, whether you eat or drink, or whatever you do, do everything for the glory of God.Give no offense to Jews or Greeks or the church of God,just as I also try to please everyone in everything, not seeking my own benefit, but the benefit of many, so that they may be saved.
