CHAP. XIIII. / 3 Men may not contemne nor condemne one the other for things indifferent: 13 But take heed that they giue no offence in them: 15 For that the Apostle prooueth vnlawfull by many reasons.

1Him that is weake in the faith receiue you, but not to doubtfull disputations.Select Romans 14:1

2For one beleeueth that he may eat all things: another who is weake, eateth herbes.Select Romans 14:2

3Let not him that eateth, despise him that eateth not: and let not him which eateth not, iudge him that eateth. For God hath receiued him.Select Romans 14:3

4Who art thou that iudgest an other mans seruant? to his owne master he standeth or falleth; Yea he shall bee holden vp: for God is able to make him stand.Select Romans 14:4

5One man esteemeth one day aboue another: another esteemeth euery day alike. Let euery man bee fully perswaded in his owne minde.Select Romans 14:5

6He that regardeth a day, regardeth it vnto the Lord; and hee that regardeth not the day, to the Lord hee doeth not regard it. He that eateth, eateth to the Lord, for hee giueth God thankes: and hee that eateth not, to the Lord hee eateth not, and giueth God thankes.Select Romans 14:6

7For none of vs liueth to himselfe, and no man dieth to himselfe.Select Romans 14:7

8For whether we liue, we liue vnto the Lord: and whether wee die, we die vnto the Lord: whether wee liue therefore or die, we are the Lords.Select Romans 14:8

9For to this ende Christ both died, and rose, and reuiued, that hee might be Lord both of the dead and liuing.Select Romans 14:9

10But why doest thou iudge thy brother? or why dost thou set at nought thy brother? wee shall all stand before the Iudgement seat of Christ.Select Romans 14:10

11For it is written, As I liue, saith the Lord, euery knee shall bow to mee, and euery tongue shall confesse to God.Select Romans 14:11

12So then euery one of vs shall giue accompt of himselfe to God.Select Romans 14:12

13Let vs not therefore iudge one another any more: but iudge this rather, that no man put a stumbling blocke, or an occasion to fall in his brothers way.Select Romans 14:13

14I know, and am perswaded by the Lord Iesus, that there is nothing vncleane of it selfe: but to him that esteemeth any thing to bee vncleane, to him it is vncleane.Select Romans 14:14

15But if thy brother be grieued with thy meate: now walkest thou not charitably. Destroy not him with thy meat, for whom Christ died.Select Romans 14:15

16Let not then your good be euill spoken of.Select Romans 14:16

17For the kingdome of God is no meat and drinke; but righteousnes, and peace, and ioy in the holy Ghost.Select Romans 14:17

18For hee that in these things serueth Christ, is acceptable to God, and approued of men.Select Romans 14:18

19Let vs therefore follow after the things which make for peace, and things wherewith one may edifie an other.Select Romans 14:19

20For meat, destroy not the worke of God: all things indeed are pure; but it is euill for that man who eateth with offence.Select Romans 14:20

21It is good neither to eate flesh nor to drinke wine, nor anything whereby thy brother stumbleth, or is offended, or is made weake.Select Romans 14:21

22Hast thou faith? haue it to thy selfe before God. Happie is he that condemneth not himselfe in that thing which hee alloweth.Select Romans 14:22

23And hee that doubteth, is damned if hee eate, because hee eateth not of faith: For whatsoeuer is not of faith, is sinne.Select Romans 14:23
