King James Version (KJV)

Romans 14:17

“For the kingdom of God is not meat and drink; but righteousness, and peace, and joy in the Holy Ghost.”

Verse in context — Romans 14

But if thy brother be grieved with [thy] meat, now walkest thou not charitably. Destroy not him with thy meat, for whom Christ died.

Let not then your good be evil spoken of:

For the kingdom of God is not meat and drink; but righteousness, and peace, and joy in the Holy Ghost.

For he that in these things serveth Christ [is] acceptable to God, and approved of men.

Let us therefore follow after the things which make for peace, and things wherewith one may edify another.

A deep explanation of salvation by grace through faith in Christ.
