13 So we shouldn’t be judging each other, but rather be judging ourselves that we’re not causing another believer to stumble or fall into temptation. 14 I know (and I’m totally persuaded) that in master Yeshua there’s no object that’s ‘immoral’[fn] in itself, but it only becomes ‘immoral’ to the person who evaluates it as such. 15 If a fellow believer is upset because of the food you eat, then you’re no longer acting in love. Don’t destroy the faith of someone that Messiah died for, just for the sake of food. 16 Don’t let anyone slander the good that you do. 17 God’s kingdom doesn’t consist of food and drink, but righteousness, peace, and happiness in the holy spirit. 18 so anyone serving the messiah in those ways pleases God and is approved by the people.

19 So then, we should be pursuing actions that lead to peace and things that build each other up—20 don’t be tearing down God’s work just on account of food. Indeed, all foods are ‘clean’[fn] but it’s wrong for a person to eat anything that causes someone else to stumble. 21 It’s good to avoid eating meat or drinking wine or doing anything else that might cause your fellow believer to stumble or be offended or fall. 22 That way you keep the faith that you have privately before God. God will bless anyone who doesn’t bring guilt on themselves by doing something that they’ve determined to be right. 23 But anyone who doubts that it’s ok, if they eat it then they’ve condemned themselves because they’re not acting in faith, and everything that’s not done in faith is sin.
