1 Corinthians 10:32

Fellowship and the churchWitness and missionLove for others

30 If I partake in the meal with thankfulness, why am I denounced because of that for which I give thanks?

31 So whether you eat or drink or whatever you do, do it all to the glory of God.

Do not become a stumbling block, whether to Jews or Greeks or the church of God—

33 as I also try to please everyone in all I do. For I am not seeking my own good, but the good of many, that they may be saved.
