Romans:14:14-22
Seeker Overlay ON
*
I 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 .
*
But if thy brother be grieved with thy meat ,
now walkest thou not charitably .
Destroy not him with thy meat ,
for whom Christ died .
*
Let not then your good be evil spoken of :
*
For the kingdom of God is not meat and drink ;
but righteousness ,
and peace ,
and joy in the Holy Ghost .
*
For he that in these things serveth Christ is acceptable to God ,
and approved of men .
*
Let us therefore follow after the things which make for peace ,
and things wherewith one may edify another .
*
For meat destroy not the work of God .
All things indeed are pure ;
but it is evil for that man who eateth with offence .
*
It is good neither to eat flesh ,
nor to drink wine ,
nor any thing whereby thy brother stumbleth ,
or is offended ,
or is made weak .
*
Hast thou faith ?
have it to thyself before God .
Happy is he that condemneth not himself in that thing which he alloweth .
