He shall not regard the God of his fathers, nor the desire of women; nor regard any god. For he shall magnify himself above them all.

But also if you marry, you have not sinned; and if a virgin marries, she has not sinned. Nevertheless such will have trouble in the flesh, but I am sparing you.

But if any man thinks he is behaving improperly toward his virgin, if she is past the flower of youth, and it is the duty, let him do what he wishes. He does not sin; let him marry.

So then he who gives in marriage does well, but he who does not give in marriage does better.

Marriage is honorable in all, and the bed undefiled; but prostitutes and adulterers God will judge.

Let not him who eats despise him who does not eat, and let not him who does not eat judge him who eats; for God has received him.

for the kingdom of God is not eating and drinking, but righteousness and peace and joy in the Holy Spirit.

But food does not commend us to God; for neither if we eat do we excel, nor if we do not eat are we lacking.

Therefore, if you died with Christ from the basic principles of the world, why, as though living in the world, do you subject yourselves to decrees;

which all concern things which perish with the using; according to the commandments and doctrines of men?

Do not be carried about with various and strange doctrines. For it is good that the heart be established by grace, not with foods which have not profited those who have been occupied with them.

And God said, Behold, I have given you every plant that yields seed which is on the face of all the earth, and every tree whose fruit yields seed; to you it shall be for food.

Also, to every living thing of the earth, to every flying creature of the heavens, and to everything that moves on the earth, living creatures, I have given the green plants for food: thus.

Every moving thing that lives shall be food for you. I have designated all things for you, even as the green plants.

Behold that which I have seen: It is good and right for one to eat and to drink, and to see good in all his labor that he labors under the sun all the days of his life, which God gives him; for it is his portion.

And a voice came to him, Arise, Peter; kill and eat.

And the voice spoke to him again the second time, What God has cleansed do not consider unclean.

Foods for the stomach and the stomach for foods, but God will destroy both it and them. Now the body is not for sexual perversion but for the Lord, and the Lord for the body.

For every creature of God is good, and nothing is to be refused if it is received with thanksgiving;

As soon as you come into the city, you will surely find him before he goes up to the high place to eat. For the people will not eat until he comes, because he must bless the sacrifice; afterward those who are invited will eat. Now therefore, go up, for today you will find him.

And He commanded the multitudes to sit down on the grass. And He took the five loaves and the two fish, and looking up to heaven, He blessed and broke and gave the loaves to the disciples; and the disciples gave to the multitudes.

And He took the seven loaves and the fish and gave thanks, broke them and gave them to His disciples; and the disciples gave to the multitude.

And it came to pass, as He sat at the table with them, that He took bread, blessed and broke it, and gave it to them.

however, other boats came from Tiberias, near the place where they ate bread after the Lord had given thanks;

And when he had said these things, he took bread and gave thanks to God in the presence of them all; and when he had broken it he began to eat.

He who regards the day, regards it to the Lord; and he who does not regard the day, to the Lord he does not regard it. He who eats, eats to the Lord, for he gives God thanks; and he who does not eat, to the Lord he does not eat, and gives God thanks.

But if I partake by grace, why am I evil spoken of because of that for which I give thanks?

Therefore, whether you eat or drink, or whatever you do, do all to the glory of God.

And whatever you do in word or deed, do all in the name of the Lord Jesus, giving thanks to God, even the Father, through Him.

who desires all men to be saved and to come to a full true knowledge of the truth.

Then Jesus said to those Jews who had believed in Him, If you continue to abide in My Word, you are truly My disciples.

And you shall know the truth, and the truth shall set you free.

But we owe thanks to God always for you, brethren beloved by the Lord, because God from the beginning chose you for salvation through sanctification of the Spirit and belief in the truth,

to which He called you through our gospel, for the obtaining of the glory of our Lord Jesus Christ.
