23 All things are permitted for me, but not all things are expedient. All things are permitted for me, but not all things are constructive.

24 Let not one man seek that of himself, but each man that of the other.

25 Eat everything being sold in a meat market, inquiring of nothing because of the conscience,

26 for the earth is the Lord's, and the fullness of it.

27 If any of those unbelievers invites you, and ye want to go, eat everything being set before you, inquiring of nothing because of the conscience.

28 But if any man say to you, This is a sacrifice to an idol, do not eat for the sake of that man who informed, and the conscience, for the earth is the Lord's, and the fullness of it.
