13

Let us not therefore judge one another any more: but judge ye this rather, that no man put a stumblingblock in his brother's way, or an occasion of falling.

14

I know, and am persuaded in the Lord Jesus, that nothing is unclean of itself: save that to him who accounteth anything to be unclean, to him it is unclean.

15

For if because of meat thy brother is grieved, thou walkest no longer in love. Destroy not with thy meat him for whom Christ died.

16

Let not then your good be evil spoken of:

17

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

18

For he that herein serveth Christ is well-pleasing to God, and approved of men.

19

So then let us follow after things which make for peace, and things whereby we may edify one another.

20

Overthrow not for meat's sake the work of God. All things indeed are clean howbeit it is evil for that man who eateth with offence.

21

It is good not to eat flesh, nor to drink wine, nor [to do anything] whereby thy brother stumbleth.

22

The faith which thou hast, have thou to thyself before God. Happy is he that judgeth not himself in that which he approveth.

23

But he that doubteth is condemned if he eat, because [he eateth] not of faith and whatsoever is not of faith is sin.
