Paul put it this way: “Keep from becoming causes for stumbling to Jews as well as Greeks and to the congregation of God, even as I am pleasing all people in all things, not seeking my own advantage but that of the many, in order that they might get saved. ” ​ — 1 Cor.
Paulus ütles: „Hoiduge saamast komistuskiviks nii juutidele, kreeklastele kui ka Jumala kogudusele, nii nagu minagi olen kõigile inimestele kõiges meele järele ega otsi oma, vaid paljude kasu, et nad päästetaks ”.
