    13 Let us not therefore judge one another anymore, but judge this instead: that no one puts a stumbling block or an occasion to fall in his brother's way.

    14 I know and am convinced by the Lord Jesus that nothing is unclean in itself; but to him who considers anything to be unclean, to him it is unclean.

    15 But if your brother is grieved with your food, you are no longer walking in love. Do not destroy with your food the one for whom Christ died.

    17 For the kingdom of God is not food and drink, but righteousness and peace and joy in the Holy Spirit.

    18 For anyone who serves Christ in these things is acceptable to God and approved by men.

    20 Do not destroy the work of God for the sake of food. All things indeed are pure, but it is evil for the man who eats with offense.

    21 It is good neither to eat meat nor drink wine nor do anything by which your brother stumbles or is offended or is made weak.

    22 Do you have faith? Have it to yourself before God. Blessed is the one who does not condemn himself in what he approves.
