Self-Denial: should be Exercised in Preferring the Profit of Others

Do not destroy the work of God for the sake of food. All food is clean, but it is wrong for a man to let his eating be a stumbling block.

It is better not to eat meat or drink wine or to do anything to cause your brother to stumble.

No one should seek his own good, but the good of others.

…as I also try to please everyone in all I do. For I am not seeking my own good, but the good of many, that they may be saved.
