Romans 14:13-15

Exhortation for the Strong not to Destroy the Weak

14:13 Therefore we must not pass judgment on one another, but rather determine never to place an obstacle or a trap before a brother or sister. ¹  14:14 I know and am convinced in the Lord Jesus that there is nothing unclean in itself; still, it is unclean to the one who considers it unclean. 14:15 For if your brother or sister ²  is distressed because of what you eat, ³  you are no longer walking in love. ⁴  Do not destroy by your food someone for whom Christ died.
