For Christ did not send me to baptize but to preach the gospel, and not with words of eloquent wisdom, lest the cross of Christ be emptied of its power.

Therefore, if food makes my brother stumble, I will never eat meat, lest I make my brother stumble.

But I discipline my body and keep it under control, lest after preaching to others I myself should be disqualified.

Therefore let anyone who thinks that he stands take heed lest he fall.
