Romans 14:14-23

I know and am persuaded in the Lord Jesus, that nothing common by itself; except to any one reckoning to be common, to that one it is common. And if by food thy brother is grieved, thou no more walkest by love. Not by thy food destroy him, for whom Christ died. Therefore let not your good be defamed. read more.
For the kingdom of God is not food and drink; but justice, and peace, and joy in the Holy Spirit. For he in these serving Christ, pleasing to God, and acceptable to men. So therefore, let us pursue the things of peace, and the things for the building up for one another. Not for sake of food destroy thou the work of God. Truly all things clean; but evil to the man eating by offence. Good not to eat flesh, nor drink wine, nor in what thy brother stumbles, or is offended, or is weak. Thou has faith; have to thyself before God. Happy he judging not himself in what he proves. And he being judged if he eat, has been condemned for not of faith; and everything not of faith is sin.

1 Corinthians 8:1-13

Concerning food therefore of sacrifices to idols, we know that an idol nothing in the world, and that none other God but one. For also though they are called gods, whether in heaven, whether upon the earth, (for there are many gods, and many lords,) But to us one God, the Father, of whom all things, and we for him; and one Lord Jesus Christ, by whom all things, and we by him. But not in all, knowledge: and some with consciousness of the idol even till now eat as a sacrifice to idols: and their consciousness being weak is contaminated. And food sets us not before God: for neither, if we eat, do we abound; neither if we eat not, do we want. And see ye lest this your power be a stumble to the weak. For if any one see thee having knowledge reclining in the idol's temple, shall not his consciousness, being weak, be built up to eat the sacrifices to idols; And shall the weak brother be destroyed upon thy knowledge, for whom Christ died? And so sinning against the brethren, and striking their weak consciousness, ye sin against Christ. Wherefore, if food offend my brother, I will eat no flesh forever, lest I shall offend my brother.

1 Corinthians 10:14-33

Wherefore, my beloved, do ye flee from idolatry. As to the wise speak I; judge ye what I say. The cup of praise which we praise, is it not the mutual participation of the blood of Christ? The bread which we break, is it not the mutual participation of the body of Christ? read more.
That, one bread, one body, we are many: for we all partake of one bread. See ye Israel according to the flesh: are not they eating the sacrifices mutual participators of the altar? What do I say therefore? that an idol is any thing? or that what is sacrificed to an idol is any thing? But, that what things they sacrifice the nations sacrifice to demons, and not to God: and I will not ye be partakers of demons. Ye cannot drink the cup of the Lord, and the cup of demons: ye cannot partake of the table of the Lord, and the table of demons. Do we emulate the Lord? are we stronger than he? All things are lawful to me, but all are not profitable: all things are lawful to me, but all build not the house. Let none seek his own, but each another's. Every thing being sold in the market, eat, ye, interrogating nothing through consciousness: For of the Lord the earth, and its fulness. And if any one of the unbelieving call you, and ye wish to go; every thing set before you, eat, interrogating nothing through consciousness. And if any one say to you, This is sacrificed to an idol, eat not, for him making it known, and consciousness: for of the Lord the earth, and its fulness: And consciousness, I say, not thine, but another's: for that why is my freedom judged by another's consciousness And if I partake by grace, why am I defamed for what I give thanks? Whether therefore ye eat, whether ye drink, or what ye do, do ye all things to the glory of God. And be ye not molesters to the Jews, and the Greeks, and to the church of God: As I also please in all things to all, not seeking my advantage, but that of many, that they might be saved.

I will announce thy justice and thy works, and they shall not profit thee.
