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. | No temptation has overtaken you except such as is common to man; but God is faithful, who will not allow you to be tempted beyond what you are able, but with the temptation will also make the way of escape, that you may be able to bear it. |
“All things are lawful,” you may say—but not all things are beneficial. All things may be lawful—but not all things are constructive. | All things are lawful for me, but not all things are helpful; all things are lawful for me, but not all things edify. |
No one should seek his own advantage in preference to that of his neighbor. | Let no one seek his own, but each one the other’s well-being. |
Therefore, whether you eat or drink, or whatever you do, do everything for the glory of God. | Therefore, whether you eat or drink, or whatever you do, do all to the glory of God. |
