1 Coríntios 10:29

29 isto é, da consciência o outro, não da sua própria. Pois por que minha liberdade deve ser julgada pela consciência dos outros?

1 Coríntios 10:29 Meaning and Commentary

1 Corinthians 10:29

Conscience I say, not thine own
Which is well informed about these things, and is fully persuaded that an idol is nothing, and that things sacrificed to idols are nothing; and as they cannot profit a man, or help forward his comfort, peace, and happiness, so they cannot hinder them:

but of the others;
either the weak brother, or the unbelieving master of the feast; it is for the sake of their consciences such food must not be eaten, lest either the one should be grieved, or the other reproach:

for why is my liberty judged of another man's conscience?
this is not an objection of the Corinthians, setting forth the unreasonableness of being condemned, for the use of their Christian liberty by another's conscience, be he who he will, believer or unbeliever, when they had an undoubted right to such an use, and their own consciences did not condemn them: but they are the words of the apostle, expressing his own sense, that it was not right and fitting that he should make use of his liberty, and eat under such a circumstance as here pointed out, and so his liberty should be condemned as sinful by another man's conscience; since the weak believer would be apt to censure, judge, and condemn him as a libertine, and the unbeliever as an atheist, or one that had no regard to any religion at all; and therefore he reasons, that it was best to abstain from eating, rather than expose his liberty to such a censure and condemnation.

1 Coríntios 10:29 In-Context

27 Se algum descrente o convidar para uma refeição e você quiser ir, coma de tudo o que for apresentado, sem nada perguntar por causa da consciência.
28 Mas, se alguém disser: “Isto foi oferecido em sacrifício”, não coma, tanto por causa da pessoa que o comentou, como da consciência,
29 isto é, da consciência o outro, não da sua própria. Pois por que minha liberdade deve ser julgada pela consciência dos outros?
30 Se participo da refeição com ação de graças, por que sou condenado por algo pelo qual dou graças a Deus?
31 Assim, quer vocês comam, quer bebam, quer façam qualquer outra coisa, façam tudo para a glória de Deus.
