Do not destroy the work of God for the sake of food. Romans 14:20.
But food does not bring us near to God; we are no worse if we do not eat, and no better if we do…that the exercise of your freedom does not become a stumbling block to the weak…So this weak brother, for whom Christ dies, is destroyed by your knowledge. When you sin against your brothers in this way and wound their weak conscience, you sin against God. 1Corinthians 8:8-12.

Since you died with Christ to the basic principles of this world, why, as though you still belonged to it, do you submit to its rules: “Do not handle! Do not taste! Do not touch!”? These are all destined to perish with use, because they are based on human commands and teachings…Such regulations indeed have an appearance of wisdom…but they lack any value in restraining sensual indulgence. Colossians 2:20-23.
For everything God created is good, and nothing is to be rejected if it is received with thanksgiving. 1Timothy 4:4. Amen.
