For it is better that you lose one of your members than that your whole body be thrown into hell. | And if thy right eye offend thee, pluck it out, and cast it from thee: for it is profitable for thee that one of thy members should perish, and not that thy whole body should be cast into hell. |
| “All things are lawful,” but not all things are helpful. “All things are lawful,” but not all things build up. | All things are lawful for me, but all things are not expedient: all things are lawful for me, but all things edify not. |
