1 Corinthians 10:23
Christian LibertyIn this section, Paul explains how Christians should use their freedom wisely, especially concerning eating food that has been offered to idols. While some things may be lawful, they are not always helpful or good for others. Paul encourages believers to consider the impact of their actions on others and stresses that everything they do should bring glory to God and promote harmony within the church.v. 23: Paul reminds them, “All things are lawful,” but not all things are helpful. “All things are lawful,” but not all things build up”(1 Corinthians 10:23 a). While some actions may be technically allowed, they are not always beneficial or encouraging to others. Christians must think not only about what they are free to do but also how their actions affect others’ faith and well-being.
