Romans 14:18-20
1599 Geneva Bible
18 For whosoever in [a]these things serveth Christ, is acceptable unto God, and is approved of men.
19 [b]Let us then follow those things which concern peace, and wherewith one may edify another.
20 Destroy not the work of God for meat’s sake: (A)all things indeed are pure: but it is evil for the man which eateth with offense.
