Judge not, and you shall not be judged; condemn not, and you shall not be condemned. Forgive, and you shall be for given. Give, and it shall be given to you; good measure, pressed down, shaken together, and running over, shall men give into your lap. For with the same measure with which you measure, it shall be measured to you in return. And he spoke a parable to them: Can the blind lead the blind? Will not both fall into the pit? read more.

Then the King will say to those on his right hand: Come, you blessed of my Father, inherit the kingdom prepared for you from the foundation of the world. For I was hungry, and you gave me food; I was thirsty, and you gave- me drink; I was a stranger, and you took me to your houses; naked, and you clothed me; I was sick, and you visited me; I was in prison, and you came to me. Then will the righteous answer him, saying: Lord, when did we see thee hungry, and feed thee? or thirsty, and give thee drink? When did we see thee a stranger, and take thee to our home? or naked, and clothe thee? When did we see thee sick, or in prison, and come to thee? And the King will answer and say to them: Verily I say to you, Inasmuch as you did it to one of the least of these my brethren, you did it to me. Then will he say to those on his left hand: Depart from me, you cursed, into the eternal fire, prepared for the devil and his angels. For I was hungry, and you gave me no food; I was thirsty, and you gave me no drink; I was a stranger, and you took me not to your houses; naked, and you did not clothe me; I was sick, and in prison, and you did not visit me. Then they also will answer, and say: Lord, when did we see thee hungry, or thirsty, or a stranger, or naked, or sick, or in prison, and did not minister to thee? Then will he answer them, saying: Verily I say to you, Inasmuch as you did it not to one of the least of these, you did it not to me. And these shall go away into eternal punishment, but the righteous into eternal life.

And I saw a great white throne, and him that sat upon it, from whose face the earth and the heaven fled away; and no place was found for them. And I saw the dead, small and great, stand before the throne; and the books were opened; and another book was opened, which is the book of life: and the dead were judged out of the things that were written in the books, according to their works. And the sea gave up the dead that were in it; and death and hades gave up the dead that were in them; and they were judged, every one according to his works. read more.

Stumbling/slipping » Not casting stumblingblocks
Now, with respect to meats offered to idols, we know, (for we all have knowledge: knowledge puffs up with pride, but love edifies. If any one thinks that he knows any thing, he knows nothing yet, as he ought to know it: but if any one loves God, he is taught by him). read more.
With respect, then, to the eating of meats offered to idols, we know that an idol is nothing in the world, and that there is no other God but one. For though there are those which are called gods, whether in heaven or on earth, (as there are many gods, and many lords,) yet to us there is one God, the Father, from whom are all things, and we for him; and one Lord, Jesus Christ, by whom are all things, and we by him. But all have not this knowledge; for some, under the persuasion that an idol is a reality, even yet eat meat, as if it were offered to an idol, and their conscience being weak, is defiled. But meat commends us not to God; for, neither if we eat are we better, nor, if we eat not, are we worse. But take heed, lest, by any means, this right of yours become a stumbling-block to those who are weak. For, if any one see you, who have knowledge, reclining at table in an idol's temple, will not the conscience of him who is weak be emboldened, so that he will eat meats offered to idols? and will not the weak brother, for whom Christ died, perish through your knowledge? But if you sin in this way against the brethren, and wound their weak conscience, you sin against Christ. For which reason, if meat cause my brother to fall, I will never eat meat, lest I cause my brother to fall.

Let us, therefore, no longer judge one another: but rather decide to put no stumbling-block or snare in your brother's way. I know and am persuaded in the Lord Jesus, that there is nothing unclean of itself; but if any one thinks that any thing is unclean, to him it is unclean. But if your brother is grieved on account of your food, you no longer walk according to love. Do not, with your food, destroy him, for whom Christ died. Therefore, let not that which is your good be evil spoken of. For the kingdom of God is not food and drink, but righteousness and peace and joy in the Holy Spirit. For he who serves the Christ in these things is acceptable to God, and approved by men. Therefore, let us seek those things which belong to peace, and those which tend to mutual edification. Destroy not the work of God on account of food. All meats, indeed, are clean; but meat is an evil to that man who, by eating, causes another to stumble. It is good neither to eat flesh, nor to drink wine, nor to do any thing by which your brother stumbles, or is ensnared, or is made weak. Have you faith? Have it to yourself before God. Blessed is he who condemns not himself in that which he approves. But he that doubts is condemned, if he eat, because he eats not with faith. Every thing that is not of faith, is sin.

All meats are lawful for me; but all are not profitable; all are lawful, but all do not edify. Let no one seek his own, but each the welfare of the other. Any thing that is sold in the market, eat, asking no questions on account of conscience: read more.
for the earth and its fullness are the Lord s. If any one of the unbelievers invites you to a feast, and you are disposed to go, eat any thing that is set before you, asking no questions for conscience sake. But if any one say to you: This is sacrificed to idols; eat not, for the sake of him that pointed it out, and for conscience sake: conscience, I say, not your own, but that of the other. Why, then, is my liberty judged by the conscience of another? If I partake with thanksgiving, why am I evil spoken of on account of that for which I give thanks? Whether, therefore, you eat or drink, or whatever you do, do all to the glory of God. Give no occasion for stumbling, either to the Jews, or to the Greeks, or to the church of God; even as I please all men in all things, not seeking my own good, but that of the many, in order that they may be saved.
