Romans 14:13-23

13Therefore, let us no longer judge one another. Instead decide never to put a stumbling block or pitfall in the way of your brother or sister.

14I know and am persuaded in the Lord Jesus that nothing is unclean in itself. Still, to someone who considers a thing to be unclean, to that one it is unclean.

15For if your brother or sister is hurt by what you eat, you are no longer walking according to love. Do not destroy, by what you eat, someone for whom Christ died.

16Therefore, do not let your good be slandered,

17for the kingdom of God is not eating and drinking, but righteousness, peace, and joy in the Holy Spirit.

18Whoever serves Christ in this way is acceptable to God and receives human approval.

19So then, let us pursue what promotes peace and what builds up one another.

20Do not tear down God’s work because of food. Everything is clean, but it is wrong to make someone fall by what he eats.

21It is a good thing not to eat meat, or drink wine, or do anything that makes your brother or sister stumble.

22Whatever you believe about these things, keep between yourself and God. Blessed is the one who does not condemn himself by what he approves.

23But whoever doubts stands condemned if he eats, because his eating is not from faith, and everything that is not from faith is sin.
