Commentaries and Concordances

GSB:

4:4 {7} For every creature of God [is] good, and nothing to be refused, if it be received with thanksgiving:
(7) He sets an apostolic rule for taking away the difference of meats, against that false doctrine.

PNT:

4:4 For every creature of God [is] good. Everything God had created is good and has its proper use.
And nothing to be refused. Hence, it is not to be refused as sinful. This applies to what God has created. He did not create one drop of alcohol.

MHC:

4:1-5 The Holy Spirit, both in the Old and the New Testament, spoke of a general turning from the faith of Christ, and the pure worship of God. This should come during the Christian dispensation, for those are called the latter days. False teachers forbid as evil what God has allowed, and command as a duty what he has left indifferent. We find exercise for watchfulness and self-denial, in attending to the requirements of God's law, without being tasked to imaginary duties, which reject what he has allowed. But nothing justifies an intemperate or improper use of things; and nothing will be good to us, unless we seek by prayer for the Lord's blessing upon it.
