Romans 14:14

Romans 14:14. know, and am persuaded in the Lord Jesus, that nothing is unclean of itself: save that to him who accounteth anything to be unclean, to him it is unclean.

'nothing is unclean of itself' -Paul therefore in this chapter is discussing things which are clean in themselves! Matter's of indifference.

'Paul isn't discussing fornication, murder, adultery, homosexuality, stealing or the like'

'save that to him who accounteth anything to be unclean'

'Accounteth' -3049. logizomai log-id'-zom-ahee; middle voice from 3056; to take an inventory, i.e. estimate (literally or figuratively): -conclude, (ac-)count (of),. despise, esteem, impute, lay, number, reason, reckon, suppose, think (on).

It is not the something in the 'meat' but rather something in the man. Eating meat or doing anything, when it violates my conscience, is wrong (Romans 14:20).

But again, if Paul is here discussing matters of sin and error, then you would have Paul saying that 'all things'-i.e. even sinful things are pure, but they only become sinful went they violate our conscience. So adultery committed in. pure conscience would be right?
