10 Why do you criticize other followers of the Lord? Why do you look down on them? The day is coming when God will judge all of us.
11 In the Scriptures God says,“I swear by my very lifethat everyone will kneel downand praise my name!”
12 And so, each of us must give an account to God for what we do.
13 We must stop judging others. We must also make up our minds not to upset anyone's faith.
14 The Lord Jesus has made it clear to me that God considers all foods fit to eat. But if you think some foods are unfit to eat, then for you they are not fit.
15 If you are hurting others by the foods you eat, you are not guided by love. Don't let your appetite destroy someone Christ died for.
16 Don't let your right to eat bring shame to Christ.
