Romans 14:13-23

13Let us no longer therefore judge one another; but judge ye this rather, not to put a stumbling-block or a fall-trap before his brother. 14I know, and am persuaded in the Lord Jesus, that nothing is unclean of itself; except to him who reckons anything to be unclean, to that man [it is] unclean. 15For if on account of meat thy brother is grieved, thou walkest no longer according to love. Destroy not him with thy meat for whom Christ has died. 16Let not then your good be evil spoken of; 17for the kingdom of 1God is not eating and drinking, but righteousness, and peace, and joy in [the] Holy Spirit. 18For he that in this serves the Christ [is] acceptable to 2God and approved of men. 19So then let us pursue the things which tend to peace, and things whereby one shall build up another. 20For the sake of meat do not destroy the work of 3God. All things indeed [are] pure; but [it is] evil to that man who eats while stumbling [in doing so]. 21[It is] right not to eat meat, nor drink wine, nor [do anything] in which thy brother stumbles, or is offended, or is weak. 22Hast thou faith? have [it] to thyself before 4God. Blessed [is] he who does not judge himself in what he allows. 23But he that doubts, if he eat, is condemned; because [it is] not of faith; but whatever [is] not of faith is sin.
