Compare all
22 Or do we aprovoke the Lord to jealousy? bAre we stronger than He?  

All to the Glory of God

23 All things are lawful1 for me, but not all things are ahelpful; all things are lawful for me, but not all things2 edify.  
24 Let no one seek his own, but each one athe other’s well-being.  
25 aEat whatever is sold in the meat market, asking no questions for conscience’ sake;  
26 for a“the earth is the Lord’s, and all its fullness.”  
27 If any of those who do not believe invites you to dinner, and you desire to go, aeat whatever is set before you, asking no question for conscience’ sake.  
28 But if anyone says to you, “This was offered to idols,” do not eat it afor the sake of the one who told you, and for conscience’ sake;1 for b“the earth is the Lord’s, and all its fullness.”  
29 “Conscience,” I say, not your own, but that of the other. For awhy is my liberty judged by another man’s conscience?  
30 But if I partake with thanks, why am I evil spoken of for the food aover which I give thanks?  
31 aTherefore, whether you eat or drink, or whatever you do, do all to the glory of God.
