lont - Romans:14:1-15:13

lont@Romans:14:1 @ Receive him who is weak in the faith, without regard to differences of opinions.

lont@Romans:14:2 @ One, indeed, believes he may eat everything; but he who is weak eats herbs only.

lont@Romans:14:3 @ Let not him who eats, despise him who eats not; and let not him who eats not, condemn him who eats: for God has received him.

lont@Romans:14:4 @ Who are you that condemn another man's servant? By his own master he stands or falls; and he shall be made to stand, for God is able to make him stand.

lont@Romans:14:5 @ One, indeed, thinks one day more holy than another: but another thinks every day alike. Let every one be convinced in his own mind.

lont@Romans:14:6 @ He who observes the day, observe it to the Lord; and he who does not observe the day to the Lord, does not observe it: he who eats, eats to the Lord, for he gives God thanks.

lont@Romans:14:7 @ For none of us lives to himself, and none of us dies to himself.

lont@Romans:14:8 @ But whether we live, we live to the Lord; and whether we die, we die to the Lord: whether we live, therefore, or die, we are the Lord's.

lont@Romans:14:9 @ For to this end, Christ both dies and rose, and lives again, that he might rule over both the dead and the living.

lont@Romans:14:10 @ But you, why do you condemn your brother? and you, also, why do you despise your brother? for we shall all be placed before the judgment seat of Christ.

lont@Romans:14:11 @ «For it is written,» 'As I live, says the Lord, surely every knee shall bow to me, and every tongue shall confess to God.'

lont@Romans:14:12 @ Well, then, every one of us shall give an account of himself to God.

lont@Romans:14:13 @ Let us, therefore, no more judge one another; but let us decide, rather, not to lay an occasion of stumbling before a brother, or a cause of falling.

lont@Romans:14:14 @ I know, and am persuaded by the Lord Jesus, that there is nothing unclean of itself; yet, to him who accounts anything to be unclean, to that man it is unclean.

lont@Romans:14:15 @ Now, if your brother be hurt through your meat, you no longer walk as love requires. Do not destroy him with your meat for whom Christ died.

lont@Romans:14:16 @ Let not your good, then, be an evil spoken of.

lont@Romans:14:17 @ For the Reign of God is not meat and drink; but righteousness and peace, and joy, in the Holy Spirit.

lont@Romans:14:18 @ And he who, by these things, serves Christ, is acceptable to God, and approved by men.

lont@Romans:14:19 @ Well, then, let us strive after peace, and mutual edification.

lont@Romans:14:20 @ Do not, for the sake of meat, destroy the work of God. All meats, indeed, are clean; but that meat is hurtful to the man who eats to occasion stumbling.

lont@Romans:14:21 @ It is good neither to eat flesh, nor to drink wine, nor to do anything by which your brother is made to stumble, or to fall, or is weakened.

lont@Romans:14:22 @ You have faith: keep it to yourself, in the sight of God. Happy is he who does not condemn himself in what he approves.

lont@Romans:14:23 @ For he who discerns a difference, between meats is condemned, if he eat; because he eats not from faith: for what is not from faith is sin.

lont@Romans:15:1 @ We, then, who are strong, ought to bear the infirmities of the weak, and not to please ourselves.

lont@Romans:15:2 @ Wherefore, let every one of us please his neighbor, as far as it is good for edification.

lont@Romans:15:3 @ «For even Christ sought not his own pleasure: but, as it is written,» 'The reproaches of them who reproached you, have fallen on me.'

lont@Romans:15:4 @ Now whatever things were before written, were written for our instruction: that through the patience and admonition of the scriptures, we might have hope.

lont@Romans:15:5 @ Now, may the God who gives patience and admonition, give to you mutual unity of sentiment, according to Christ Jesus.

lont@Romans:15:6 @ That with one mind, and with one voice, you may glorify God, even the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ.

lont@Romans:15:7 @ Wherefore, cordially receive one another; even as Christ also has received us to the glory of God.

lont@Romans:15:8 @ Now, I affirm that Jesus Christ became a minister of the circumcision on account of the truth of God, in order to confirm the promises made to the fathers;

lont@Romans:15:9 @ «and that the Gentiles might praise God on account of mercy: as it is written,» 'For this cause I will glorify thee among the Gentiles, and sing to thy name.'

lont@Romans:15:10 @ «And again he says,» 'Rejoice, you Gentiles, with his people.'

lont@Romans:15:11 @ «And again,» 'Praise the Lord, all you Gentiles; and extol him, all you people.'

lont@Romans:15:12 @ «And again, Isaiah says, to be a leader of the Gentiles; upon him shall the Gentiles place their hope.»

lont@Romans:15:13 @ Now, may the God of hope fill you with all joy, and peace, in believing; in order that you may abound in that hope, through the power of the Holy Spirit.
