Council of Gangra

Local councils, NPNF II.14

Chapter 2

If any one shall condemn him who eats flesh, which is without blood and has not been offered to idols nor strangled, and is faithful and devout, as though the man were without hope [of salvation] because of his eating, let him be anathema.

Notes · Ancient Epitome of Canon II

Anathema also to him who condemns the eating of flesh, except that of a suffocated animal or that offered to idols.
