Romans 14:14-23

14I am convincedG1492 andG2532 fully persuadedG3982 inG1722 the LordG2962 JesusG2424 thatG3754 nothingG3762 is uncleanG2839 inG1223 itselfG1438. But ifG1487G3361 anyone regardsG3049 somethingG5100 asG1510 uncleanG2839, then for himG1565 it is uncleanG2839. 15IfG1487 yourG4771 brotherG80 is distressedG3076 byG1223 what you eat, you are no longer actingG3765G4043 inG2596 loveG26. Do notG3361 byG3588 your eating destroyG622 yourG4771 brother, forG5228 whomG3739 ChristG5547 diedG599.

16Do not allowG3361 whatG3588 youG4771 consider goodG18, thenG3767, to be spoken of as evilG987. 17ForG1063 theG3588 kingdomG932 of GodG2316 isG1510 notG3756 a matter of eatingG1035 andG2532 drinkingG4213, butG235 of righteousnessG1343, peaceG1515, andG2532 joyG5479 inG1722 the HolyG40 SpiritG4151. 18ForG1063 whoeverG3588 servesG1398 ChristG5547 inG1722 this wayG3778 is pleasingG2101 to GodG2316 andG2532 approvedG1384 by menG444.

19SoG686 thenG3767, let us pursueG1377 what leads toG3588 peaceG1515 andG2532 toG3588 mutualG1519G240 edificationG3619. 20Do notG3361 destroyG2647 theG3588 workG2041 of GodG2316 for the sake ofG1752 foodG1033. AllG3956 food is cleanG2513, butG235 it is wrongG2556 for a manG444 to let his eating beG1223G2068 a stumbling blockG4348. 21It is betterG2570 notG3361 to eatG5315 meatG2907 or drinkG4095 wineG3631 or to do anything to cause yourG4771 brotherG80 to stumbleG4350.1

22KeepG2192 yourG4771 beliefG4102 about such matters betweenG2596 yourselfG4572 and GodG2316.2 BlessedG3107 is theG3588 one who does not condemnG3361G2919 himselfG1438 byG1722 whatG3739 he approvesG1381. 23ButG1161 theG3588 one who has doubtsG1252 is condemnedG2632 ifG1437 he eatsG5315, becauseG3754 his eating is notG3756 fromG1537 faithG4102; andG1161 everythingG3956 thatG3739 is notG3756 fromG1537 faithG4102 isG1510 sinG266.3
