Romans 14:14-16
1599 Geneva Bible
14 [a]I know, and am persuaded through the [b]Lord Jesus, that there is nothing unclean of [c]itself: but unto him that judgeth anything to be unclean, to him it is unclean.
15 But if thy brother be grieved for the meat, now walkest thou not charitably: (A)[d]destroy not him with thy meat, for whom [e]Christ died.
16 [f]Cause not your commodity to be evil spoken of.

- Romans 14:14 The preventing of an objection: It is true that the schoolmastership of the Law is taken away by the benefit of Christ, to such as know it, but yet notwithstanding we have to consider in the use of this liberty what is expedient, that we may have regard of our weak brother, seeing that our liberty is not lost thereby.
- Romans 14:14 By the Spirit of the Lord Jesus, or by the Lord Jesus, who I am sure brake down the wall at his coming.
- Romans 14:14 By nature.
- Romans 14:15 It is the part of a cruel mind to make more account of meat, than of our brother’s salvation. Which thing they do, that presume to eat with offense of any brother, and so give him occasion to go back from the Gospel.
- Romans 14:15 Another argument: We must follow Christ’s example: who was so far from destroying the weak with meat, that he gave his life for them.
- Romans 14:16 Another argument: for that by this means the liberty of the Gospel is evil spoken of, as though it openeth the way to attempt any thing whatsoever, and boldeneth us to all things.
