Or do we provoke the Lord to jealousy? Are we stronger than he?

"All things are lawful for me," but not all things are profitable. "All things are lawful for me," but not all things build up.

Let no one seek his own, but each one his neighbor's good.

Whatever is sold in the butcher shop, eat, asking no question for the sake of conscience,

for "the earth is the Lord's, and its fullness."

But if one of those who don't believe invites you to a meal, and you are inclined to go, eat whatever is set before you, asking no questions for the sake of conscience.

But if anyone says to you, "This was offered to idols," don't eat it for the sake of the one who told you, and for the sake of conscience. For "the earth is the Lord's, and all its fullness."
