1 Corinthians 10:26-28
EasyEnglish Bible
26 The Bible says this: ‘The earth, and everything in it, belongs to the Lord.’[a]
27 People who do not believe in Christ may ask you to eat a meal with them. Agree to go to his home, if you want to. Then you should eat whatever food they give to you. Do not ask questions about the food. Do not cause your thoughts to have trouble. 28 But someone there may say to you, ‘They offered this food to an idol.’ If someone tells you that, do not eat the food. It might cause trouble to the thoughts of the person who told you.
