6 Now these things were our examples to the intent we should not lust after evil things as they also lusted 7 Neither be ye idolaters as were some of them as it is written The people sat down to eat and drink and rose up to play 8 Neither let us commit fornication as some of them committed and fell in one day three and twenty thousand 9 Neither let us tempt Christ as some of them also tempted and were destroyed of serpents 10 Neither murmur ye as some of them also murmured and were destroyed of the destroyer 11 Now all these things happened unto them for ensamples and they are written for our admonition upon whom the ends of the world are come 12 Wherefore let him that thinketh he standeth take heed lest he fall 13 There hath no temptation taken you but such as is common to man but God is faithful who will not suffer you to be tempted above that ye are able but will with the temptation also make a way to escape that ye may be able to bear it
14 Wherefore my dearly beloved flee from idolatry 15 I speak as to wise men judge ye what I say 16 The cup of blessing which we bless is it not the communion of the blood of Christ The bread which we break is it not the communion of the body of Christ 17 For we being many are one bread and one body for we are all partakers of that one bread 18 Behold Israel after the flesh are not they which eat of the sacrifices partakers of the altar 19 What say I then that the idol is any thing or that which is offered in sacrifice to idols is any thing 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 lawful for me but all things are not expedient all things are lawful for me but all things edify not 24 Let no man seek his own but every man another's wealth 25 Whatsoever is sold in the shambles that eat asking no question for conscience sake 26 For the earth is the Lord's and the fulness thereof 27 If any of them that believe not bid you to a feast and ye be disposed to go whatsoever is set before you eat asking no question for conscience sake 28 But if any man say unto you This is offered in sacrifice unto idols eat not for his sake that shewed it and for conscience sake for the earth is the Lord's and the fulness thereof 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
31 Whether therefore ye eat or drink or whatsoever ye do do all to the glory of God 32 Give none offence neither to the Jews nor to the Gentiles nor to the church of God 33 Even as I please all men in all things not seeking mine own profit but the profit of many that they may be saved
