1 Corinthians 10:29 in Context — 1 Corinthians 10

27 Si un non-croyant vous invite et que vous vouliez y aller, mangez de tout ce qu’on vous présentera, sans vous enquérir de rien par motif de conscience.

28 Mais si quelqu’un vous dit: Ceci a été offert en sacrifice! N’en mangez pas, à cause de celui qui a donné l’avertissement, et à cause de la conscience.

29 Je parle ici, non de votre conscience, mais de celle de l’autre. Pourquoi, en effet, ma liberté serait-elle jugée par une conscience étrangère?

30 Si je mange avec actions de grâces, pourquoi serais-je blâmé au sujet d’une chose dont je rends grâces?

31 Soit donc que vous mangiez, soit que vous buviez, soit que vous fassiez quelque autre chose, faites tout pour la gloire de Dieu.
