One person considers one day to be better than the rest, while another person considers every day to be just as good. Each person should be fully convinced in their own mind.
If anyone among you is wise and understanding, they should show it by living a good life and doing things with the humility that comes from being wise.
Brothers and sisters, if someone is caught in a sin, then you who live by the Spirit should correct that person. But do it in a gentle way, and be careful, because you could be tempted too.
But whoever has doubts about something they might eat is guilty if they do eat it. That’s because they don’t believe that they should be eating it, and if you do something even though you don’t believe you should, that’s sin.
With God’s help, we’ve acted toward everyone, and especially toward you, honorably and honestly. We can say that with pride and a clear conscience. We’ve depended on God’s grace and not on the world’s wisdom.
I’m convinced, because the Lord Jesus has convinced me of this, that nothing is unclean in itself. But someone may consider a thing to be unclean. If they do, it is unclean for them.
One person’s faith allows them to eat anything, but another person whose faith is weak doesn’t eat any meat, in case some of it has been offered to idols.
So when you judge someone else, you don’t have any excuse. When you judge another person, you’re judging yourself, because you do the same things you blame others for doing.
But not everyone knows this. Some people are still so accustomed to idols that when they eat sacrificial food, they think of it as having been sacrificed to real gods. And because their conscience is weak, they feel guilty.
