15. Yet if because of food your brother is grieved, you walk no longer in love. Don’t destroy with your food him for whom Messiah died.
16. Then don’t let your good be slandered,
17. for God’s Kingdom is not eating and drinking, but righteousness, peace, and joy in the Holy Spirit.
18. For he who serves Messiah in these things is acceptable to God and approved by men.
19. So then, let’s follow after things which make for peace, and things by which we may build one another up.
20. Don’t overthrow God’s work for food’s sake. All things indeed are clean, however it is evil for that man who creates a stumbling block by eating.
21. It is good to not eat meat, drink wine, nor do anything by which your brother stumbles, is offended, or is made weak.
22. Do you have faith? Have it to yourself before God. Happy is he who doesn’t judge himself in that which he approves.
23. But he who doubts is condemned if he eats, because it isn’t of faith; and whatever is not of faith is sin.
24. Now to him who is able to establish you according to my Good News and the proclaiming of Yeshua the Messiah, according to the revelation of the mystery which has been kept secret through long ages,
25. but now is revealed, and by the Scriptures of the prophets, according to the commandment of the eternal God, is made known for obedience of faith to all the nations;
26. to the only wise God, through Yeshua the Messiah, to whom be the glory forever! Amen.
