Romans 14:20 Context
18For hee that in these things serueth Christ, is acceptable to God, and approued of men. 19Let vs therefore follow after the things which make for peace, and things wherewith one may edifie an other. 20For meat, destroy not the worke of God: all things indeed are pure; but it is euill for that man who eateth with offence. 21It is good neither to eate flesh, nor to drinke wine, nor any thing whereby thy brother stumbleth, or is offended, or is made weake. 22Hast thou faith? haue it to thy selfe before God. Happie is he that condemneth not himselfe in that thing which hee alloweth.
