20 But I say, that the things which the Gentiles sacrifice, they sacrifice to devils, and not to God; and I would not that ye should have fellowship with devils.
21 Ye cannot drink the cup of the Lord, and the cup of devils; ye cannot be partakers of the Lord's table, and of the table of devils.
22 Do we provoke the Lord to jealousy? are we stronger than he?
23 All things are not lawful for me, for all things are not expedient? all things are not lawful, for all things edify not.
24 Let no man seek therefore his own, but every man another's good.
25 Whatsoever is sold in the shambles, that eat, asking no question for conscience' sake;

29 Conscience, I say, not thine own, but of the other; for why is my liberty judged of another man's conscience?
30 For if I by grace be a partaker, why am I evil spoken of for that for which I give thanks?
