1 Corinthians 10:20-32
20No, I imply that what pagans sacrifice athey offer to demons and not to God. I do not want you to be participants with demons. 21 bYou cannot drink the cup of the Lord and cthe cup of demons. You cannot partake of the table of the Lord and dthe table of demons. 22 eShall we provoke the Lord to jealousy? fAre we stronger than he?Do All to the Glory of God
23 g“All things are lawful,” but not all things are helpful. “All things are lawful,” but not all things build up. 24 hLet no one seek his own good, but the good of his neighbor. 25 iEat whatever is sold in the meat market without raising any question on the ground of conscience. 26For j“the earth is the Lord’s, and the fullness thereof.” 27If one of the unbelievers invites you to dinner and you are disposed to go, keat whatever is set before you without raising any question on the ground of conscience. 28But if someone says to you, “This has been offered in sacrifice,” then do not eat it, for the sake of the one who informed you, and for the sake of conscience— 29I do not mean lyour conscience, but his. For mwhy should my liberty be determined by someone else’s conscience? 30If I partake with thankfulness, why am I denounced because of that nfor which I give thanks?31So, whether you eat or drink, or owhatever you do, do all to the glory of God. 32 pGive no offense to Jews or to Greeks or to qthe church of God,
