1Accept the man who has a weak faith, but not to entertain doubtful thinking. 2For one believes that he may eat all things. Another who is weak eats only vegetables. 3Let the one eating not look down on the one not eating. Let the one who does not eat judge him that eats, for God has received him. 4Who are you to judge another man’s servant? He stands or falls before his own master. Yes, he will be made to stand for God can make him stand. 5One person judges one day above another. Another person judges every day alike. Let every man be fully persuaded in his own mind. 6He who regards the day regards it to God and he who does not regard the day does not regard it to God. He, who eats, eats to God, for he gives God thanks. He who does not eat does not eat to God and he gives God thanks. 7For none of us lives to himself, and no man dies to himself. 8For if we live, we live to God and if we die, we die to God. Therefore should we live or die, we are God’s. 9To this end Christ both died, and rose, and lived again, that he might be Lord both of the dead and the living. 10Why do you judge your brother? Why do you look down on your brother with contempt? We will all stand before the judgment seat of God Theos. 11It is written: As I live, says Jehovah, every knee will bow to me, and every tongue will acknowledge confess to Jehovah. (Isaiah 45:23) 12So then every one of us will give account of himself to God. 13Let us not judge one another any more. Let no man put a stumbling block or an occasion to fall in his brother’s way. 14I know, and am persuaded by the Lord Jesus, that there is nothing unclean in itself. If someone thinks something is unclean it is unclean to him. 15If because of your food your brother is grieved, you do not walk in love. Do not allow what you eat to destroy the one for whom Christ died. 16Do not let the good you do be spoken of as evil. 17For the kingdom of God is not food and drink; but righteousness and peace and joy in the Holy Spirit. 18For he that serves Christ is acceptable to God, and approved of by men. 19Let us follow after the things that make for peace, and things that are encouraging to one another. 20Do not tear down the work of God for the sake of food. All things indeed are pure; but it is evil for that man who eats with offense. 21It is good neither to eat food, nor to drink wine, nor any thing that causes your brother to stumble or be offended and weakened. 22Do you have faith? Have it for yourself before God. Happy is he who does not condemn himself in that thing that he allows. 23He that doubts is damned if he eats, because he eats not by faith. Whatever is not by faith is sin!
