14:14I know, and am persuaded by the Lord Jesus, that there is nothing unclean of itself: but to him that esteemeth any thing to be unclean, to him it is unclean.

14:15But if thy brother be grieved with thy meat, now walkest thou not charitably. Destroy not him with thy meat, for whom Christ died.

14:16Let not then your good be evil spoken of:

14:17For the kingdom of God is not meat and drink; but righteousness, and peace, and joy in the Holy Ghost.

14:18For he that in these things serveth Christ is acceptable to God, and approved of men.

14:19Let us therefore follow after the things which make for peace, and things wherewith one may edify another.

14:20For meat destroy not the work of God. All things indeed are pure; but it is evil for that man who eateth with offence.

14:21It is good neither to eat flesh, nor to drink wine, nor any thing whereby thy brother stumbleth, or is offended, or is made weak.

14:22Hast thou faith? have it to thyself before God. Happy is he that condemneth not himself in that thing which he alloweth.
