Romans 14
1 Him that is weak in the faith receive ye, but not
to doubtful disputations.
2 For one believeth that he may eat all things:
another, who is weak, eateth herbs.
3 Let not him that eateth despise him that eateth
not; and let not him which eateth not judge him that
eateth: for God hath received him.
4 Who art thou that judgest another man's servant?
to his own master he standeth or falleth. Yea, he
shall be holden up: for God is able to make him
stand.
5 One man esteemeth one day above another: another
esteemeth every day alike. Let every man be fully
persuaded in his own mind.
6 He that regardeth the day, regardeth it unto the
Lord; and he that regardeth not the day, to the Lord
he doth not regard it. He that eateth, eateth to the
Lord, for he giveth God thanks; and he that eateth
not, to the Lord he eateth not, and giveth God
thanks.
7 For none of us liveth to himself, and no man dieth
to himself.
8 For whether we live, we live unto the Lord; and
whether we die, we die unto the Lord: whether we live
therefore, or die, we are the Lord's.
9 For to this end Christ both died, and rose, and
revived, that he might be Lord both of the dead and
living.
10 But why dost thou judge thy brother? or why dost
thou set at nought thy brother? for we shall all
stand before the judgment seat of Christ.
11 For it is written, As I live, saith the Lord,
every knee shall bow to me, and every tongue shall
confess to God.
12 So then every one of us shall give account of
himself to God.
13 Let us not therefore judge one another any more:
but judge this rather, that no man put a
stumblingblock or an occasion to fall in his
brother's way.
14 I know, and am persuaded by the Lord Jesus, that
there is nothing unclean of itself: but to him that
esteemeth any thing to be unclean, to him it is
unclean.
15 But if thy brother be grieved with thy meat, now
walkest thou not charitably. Destroy not him with thy
meat, for whom Christ died.
16 Let not then your good be evil spoken of:
17 For the kingdom of God is not meat and drink; but
righteousness, and peace, and joy in the Holy Ghost.
18 For he that in these things serveth Christ is
acceptable to God, and approved of men.
19 Let us therefore follow after the things which
make for peace, and things wherewith one may edify
another.
20 For meat destroy not the work of God. All things
indeed are pure; but it is evil for that man who
eateth with offence.
21 It is good neither to eat flesh, nor to drink
wine, nor any thing whereby thy brother stumbleth, or
is offended, or is made weak.
22 Hast thou faith? have it to thyself before God.
Happy is he that condemneth not himself in that thing
which he alloweth.
23 And he that doubteth is damned if he eat, because
he eateth not of faith: for whatsoever is not of
faith is sin.
