Romans 14 — Context

11

For it is written, "AS I LIVE, SAYS THE LORD, EVERY KNEE SHALL BOW TO ME, AND EVERY TONGUE SHALL GIVE PRAISE TO GOD."

12

So then each one of us will give an account of himself to God.

13

Therefore let us not judge one another anymore, but rather determine this--not to put an obstacle or a stumbling block in a brother's way.

14

I know and am convinced in the Lord Jesus that nothing is unclean in itself; but to him who thinks anything to be unclean, to him it is unclean.

15

For if because of food your brother is hurt, you are no longer walking according to love. Do not destroy with your food him for whom Christ died.

16

Therefore do not let what is for you a good thing be spoken of as evil;

17

for the kingdom of God is not eating and drinking, but righteousness and peace and joy in the Holy Spirit.
