Romans 14:1-9 ▼

1 Now him that is weak in the faith receive, not to [the] determining of questions of reasoning.

2 One man is assured that he may eat all things; but the weak eats herbs.

3 Let not him that eats make little of him that eats not; and let not him that eats not judge him that eats: for God has received him.

4 Who art thou that judgest the servant of another? to his own master he stands or falls. And he shall be made to stand; for the Lord is able to make him stand.

5 One man esteems day more than day; another esteems every day [alike]. Let each be fully persuaded in his own mind.

6 He that regards the day, regards it to [the] Lord. And he that eats, eats to [the] Lord, for he gives God thanks; and he that does not eat, [it is] to [the] Lord he does not eat, and gives God thanks.

7 For none of us lives to himself, and none dies to himself.

8 For both if we should live, [it is] to the Lord we live; and if we should die, [it is] to the Lord we die: both if we should live then, and if we should die, we are the Lord's.

9 For to this [end] Christ has died and lived [again], that he might rule over both dead and living.
