Romans 14:13-21

New King James Version

¹³ Therefore let us not judge one another ^[a]anymore, but rather resolve this, ^(A)not to put a stumbling block or a cause to fall in our brother’s way.

The Law of Love

¹⁴ I know and am convinced by the Lord Jesus ^(B)that there is nothing unclean of itself; but to him who considers anything to be unclean, to him it is unclean. ¹⁵ Yet if your brother is grieved because of your food, you are no longer walking in love. ^(C)Do not destroy with your food the one for whom Christ died. ^16 (D)Therefore do not let your good be spoken of as evil; ^17 (E)for the kingdom of God is not eating and drinking, but righteousness and ^(F)peace and joy in the Holy Spirit. ¹⁸ For he who serves Christ in ^[b]these things ^(G)is acceptable to God and approved by men.

^19 (H)Therefore let us pursue the things which make for peace and the things by which ^(I)one may ^[c]edify another. ^20 (J)Do not destroy the work of God for the sake of food. ^(K)All things indeed are pure, ^(L)but it is evil for the man who eats with ^[d]offense. ²¹ It is good neither to eat ^(M)meat nor drink wine nor do anything by which your brother stumbles ^[e]or is offended or is made weak.
