Seek the Good of Others.^* 23“Everything is lawful,” but not everything is beneficial.^* “Everything is lawful,” but not everything builds up.^r 24No one should seek his own advantage, but that of his neighbor.^s 25^* Eat anything sold in the market, without raising questions on grounds of conscience, 26for “the earth and its fullness are the Lord’s.”^t 27If an unbeliever invites you and you want to go, eat whatever is placed before you, without raising questions on grounds of conscience. 28But if someone says to you, “This was offered in sacrifice,” do not eat it on account of the one who called attention to it and on account of conscience; 29I mean not your own conscience, but the other’s. For why should my freedom be determined by someone else’s conscience? 30If I partake thankfully, why am I reviled for that over which I give thanks?^u

31So whether you eat or drink, or whatever you do, do everything for the glory of God.
