No temptation has overtaken you that is not common to man. God is faithful, and he will not let you be tempted beyond your ability, but with the temptation he will also provide the way of escape, that you may be able to endure it. | No trial has confronted you except what a person can stand. God is faithful, and he will not allow you to be tried beyond your strength. But together with the trial he will also provide a way out and the strength to bear it. |
“All things are lawful,” but not all things are helpful. “All things are lawful,” but not all things build up. | “All things are lawful,” you may say—but not all things are beneficial. All things may be lawful—but not all things are constructive. |
Let no one seek his own good, but the good of his neighbor. | No one should seek his own advantage in preference to that of his neighbor. |
So, whether you eat or drink, or whatever you do, do all to the glory of God. | Therefore, whether you eat or drink, or whatever you do, do everything for the glory of God. |
