1 Corinthians 9:20-22 - To the Jews I became as a Jew, in order to win Jews. To those under the law I became as one under the law (though not being myself under the law) that I might win those under the law. To those outside the law I became as one outside the law (not being outside the law of God but under the law of Christ) that I might win those outside the law. To the weak I became weak, that I might win the weak. I have become all things to all people, that by all means I might save some.
Romans 14:1 - As for the one who is weak in faith, welcome him, but not to quarrel over opinions.
1 Corinthians 10:32-33 - Give no offense to Jews or to Greeks or to the church of God, just as I try to please everyone in everything I do, not seeking my own advantage, but that of many, that they may be saved.
1 Corinthians 8:13 - Therefore, if food makes my brother stumble, I will never eat meat, lest I make my brother stumble.
Application:
· Do I accommodate myself to the culture when it does not violate my allegiance to Christ?
· Do I only fellowship with those who I agree with?
· Do I cause the consciences of others to be offended by my daily life?
· Do I refrain from engaging in harmless practices if it will cause my brothers to fall?
