In context

18 What then is my reward? That in preaching the gospel I may offer it free of charge, and so not use up my rights in preaching it.

19 Though I am free of obligation to anyone, I make myself a slave to everyone, to win as many as possible.

20 To the Jews I became like a Jew, to win the Jews. To those under the law I became like one under the law (though I myself am not under the law), to win those under the law.

21 To those without the law I became like one without the law (though I am not outside the law of God but am under the law of Christ), to win those without the law.

22 To the weak I became weak, to win the weak. I have become all things to all people so that by all possible means I might save some.
