Romans 14:15

Romans 14:15

13 Therefore let us not judge one another¹ anymore, but rather resolve this, ^anot 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 ^athat 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. ^aDo not destroy with your food the one for whom Christ died.

16 ^aTherefore do not let your good be spoken of as evil;

17 ^afor the kingdom of God is not eating and drinking, but righteousness and ^bpeace and joy in the Holy Spirit.

Romans 14:16 >>

Romans 14:15 If thy brother is grieved with [thy] meat. If his feelings are hurt because you eat food that he thinks it is sinful to eat, it would be charitable for you to abstain from it for his sake. Destroy not him with thy meat. His grief, and the effect upon him of seeing you do what he regards as sinful, may be to destroy him. It is kinder to give up the meat than to risk his destruction. If Christ died for him, you surely can do that much.
