There are no more laws restricting on what to eat or what not to eat. We should not make our fellow believers to be distressed because of what we eat.Īfter Jesus’ death on the cross for our sin, we are no longer bound by the law. Paul writes that the kingdom of God is not a matter of eating and drinking, but of righteousness, peace, and joy in the Holy Spirit. 23 But whoever has doubts ( S) is condemned if they eat, because their eating is not from faith and everything that does not come from faith is sin. Blessed is the one who does not condemn ( R) himself by what he approves. ( Q)Ģ2 So whatever you believe about these things keep between yourself and God. ( P) 21 It is better not to eat meat or drink wine or to do anything else that will cause your brother or sister to fall.
( N) All food is clean, ( O) but it is wrong for a person to eat anything that causes someone else to stumble. ( M) 20 Do not destroy the work of God for the sake of food. ( K)ġ9 Let us therefore make every effort to do what leads to peace ( L) and to mutual edification. ( G) 17 For the kingdom of God is not a matter of eating and drinking, ( H) but of righteousness, peace ( I) and joy in the Holy Spirit, ( J) 18 because anyone who serves Christ in this way is pleasing to God and receives human approval. ( F) 16 Therefore do not let what you know is good be spoken of as evil. ( E) Do not by your eating destroy someone for whom Christ died. ( D) 15 If your brother or sister is distressed because of what you eat, you are no longer acting in love. ( C) But if anyone regards something as unclean, then for that person it is unclean. ( B) 14 I am convinced, being fully persuaded in the Lord Jesus, that nothing is unclean in itself. Instead, make up your mind not to put any stumbling block or obstacle in the way of a brother or sister. 13 Therefore let us stop passing judgment ( A) on one another.
