Romans 14:13-23

Today’s Scripture:

13 So

let’s stop condemning each other. Decide instead to live in such a way

that you will not cause another believer to stumble and fall.

14 I

know and am convinced on the authority of the Lord Jesus that no food,

in and of itself, is wrong to eat. But if someone believes it is wrong,

then for that person it is wrong. 15 And

if another believer is distressed by what you eat, you are not acting

in love if you eat it. Don’t let your eating ruin someone for whom

Christ died. 16 Then you will not be criticized for doing something you believe is good. 17 For

the Kingdom of God is not a matter of what we eat or drink, but of

living a life of goodness and peace and joy in the Holy Spirit. 18 If you serve Christ with this attitude, you will please God, and others will approve of you, too. 19 So then, let us aim for harmony in the church and try to build each other up.

20 Don’t

tear apart the work of God over what you eat. Remember, all foods are

acceptable, but it is wrong to eat something if it makes another person

stumble. 21 It is better not to eat meat or drink wine or do anything else if it might cause another believer to stumble.[a] 22 You

may believe there’s nothing wrong with what you are doing, but keep it

between yourself and God. Blessed are those who don’t feel guilty for

doing something they have decided is right. 23 But

if you have doubts about whether or not you should eat something, you

are sinning if you go ahead and do it. For you are not following your

convictions. If you do anything you believe is not right, you are

sinning.[b]
