1 Corinthians 10:22-24
Living Bible
22 What? Are you tempting the Lord to be angry with you? Are you stronger than he is?
23 You are certainly free to eat food offered to idols if you want to; it’s not against God’s laws to eat such meat, but that doesn’t mean that you should go ahead and do it. It may be perfectly legal, but it may not be best and helpful. 24 Don’t think only of yourself. Try to think of the other fellow, too, and what is best for him.

The Believer’s Freedom
