Read also Ephesians 5:19-33.
C. God made us, therefore, He knows better what is good and right for our bodies than ourselves.
"Know that the LORD, He is God; It is He who has made us, and not we ourselves; We are His people and the sheep of His pasture" (Psalms 100:3)
"O LORD, I know the way of man is not in himself; It is not in man who walks to direct his own steps" (Jeremiah 10:23)
D. Human life is sacred. Therefore, the murder of innocent life is an abomination in God's sight.
"These six things the LORD hates, Yes, seven are an abomination to Him: A proud look, A lying tongue, Hands that shed innocent blood" (Proverbs 6:16-17).
"Whoever sheds man's blood, By man his blood shall be shed; For in the image of God He made man" (Genesis 9:6).
E. Anything that would cause another honest brother to stumble is wrong.
"And because of your knowledge shall the weak brother perish, for whom Christ died? But when you thus sin against the brethren, and wound their weak conscience, you sin against Christ. Therefore, if food makes my brother stumble, I will never again eat meat, lest I make my brother stumble" (1 Corinthians 8:11-13).
