1 CORINTHIANS 10:29 — KING JAMES VERSION 0 0
“Conscience, I say, not thine own, but of the other: for why is my liberty judged of another man’s conscience?”
I am referring to the other person's conscience, not yours. For why is my freedom being judged by another's conscience? — Paul clarifies: the concern for conscience is for the weak person, not the strong. The strong's freedom is not to be judged by the weak's scruple. Yet paradoxically, the strong voluntarily constrains freedom out of love. The question 'why is my freedom judged?' presumes the strong would naturally exercise their right.
