ACC ~ 1 Corinthians 10 v29

LIBERTY NOT BOUND TO ANOTHER’S SCRUPLES. CHRYSOSTOM: What Paul means is this. God has made him free and put him beyond harm’s reach, but the Gentile does not understand his rule of life. He cannot see the nature of Christian freedom and will say to himself that Christianity is a lie, because although Christians shun demons, they are prepared to eat things which have been offered to them, so great is their gluttony. Such a judgment may be unfair, but it is better not to give the Gentile any room for judging at all. HOMILIES ON THE EPISTLES OF PAUL TO THE CORINTHIANS 25.2.
