Romans 14

¹⁹ So then, let us pursue what leads to peace and to mutual edification.

²¹ It is better not to eat meat or drink wine or to do anything to cause your brother to stumble.

²² Keep your belief about such matters between yourself and God. Blessed is the one who does not condemn himself by what he approves.
