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.  
18 For he who serves Christ in1 these things ais acceptable to God and approved by men.
