## I know and am persuaded in the Lord Jesus ## "I am certain because of my relationship with the Lord Jesus" ## except that for him who considers anything to be unclean, to him it is unclean ## This could be translated as a new sentence: "But if a person thinks something is unclean, then for that person it is unclean and he should stay away from it." ## If because of food your brother is hurt ## "If you hurt your fellow believer's faith over the matter of food." Here the word "your" refers to the strong in faith and "brother" refers to the weak in faith. ## you no longer walk in love ## "then you are no longer showing love"
