Romans 14:11-17

¹¹For it is written, “As I live,” says the Lord, “to me every knee will bend, and every tongue will give praise to God.”

¹²So then, each one of us will give an account of himself to God.

¹³Therefore, let us no longer judge one another, but instead decide this, that no one will place a stumbling block or a snare for his brother.

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

¹⁵If because of food your brother is hurt, you are no longer walking in love. Do not destroy with your food one for whom Christ died.

¹⁶So do not allow what you consider to be good to be spoken of as evil.

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