Romans 14:15-18

New International Version

¹⁵ If your brother or sister is distressed because of what you eat, you are no longer acting in love.^(A) Do not by your eating destroy someone for whom Christ died.^{(B) 16} Therefore do not let what you know is good be spoken of as evil.^{(C) 17} For the kingdom of God is not a matter of eating and drinking,^(D) but of righteousness, peace^(E) and joy in the Holy Spirit,^{(F) 18} because anyone who serves Christ in this way is pleasing to God and receives human approval.^(G)
