13 Let us, therefore, not judge one another any more, but judge this rather: that no man put a stumblingblock or an occasion to fall in his brother’s way. 14 I know and trust in the Lord Jesus that for his sake there is nothing unclean, but to him that esteems any thing to be unclean, to him it is unclean. 15 But if thy brother is grieved because of thy food, now thou dost not walk in charity. Do not destroy him with thy food, for whom Christ died. 16 Let not then your good be evil spoken of; 17 for the kingdom of God is not food and drink, but righteousness and peace and joy in the Holy Spirit. 18 For he that in these things serves the Christ is well pleasing unto God and approved of men. 19 Let us, therefore, follow after the things which make for peace and the edification of each one to the others.
20 Because of food, do not destroy the work of God. All things indeed are clean, but it is evil for that man who eats with offense. 21 It is good neither to eat flesh nor to drink wine nor do any thing by which thy brother stumbles or is offended or is sick. 22 Thou hast faith; have it to thyself before God. Blessed is he that does not condemn himself with that thing which he allows. 23 And he that makes a difference is condemned if he eats, because he does not eat by faith; and whatsoever is not out of faith is sin.
