Romans:14:10-23
Seeker Overlay ON
*
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 .
*
For it is written ,
As I live ,
saith the Lord ,
every knee shall bow to me ,
and every tongue shall confess to God .
*
So then every one of us shall give account of himself to God .
*
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 .
*
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 .
*
But if thy brother be grieved with thy meat ,
now walkest thou not charitably .
Destroy not him with thy meat ,
for whom Christ died .
*
Let not then your good be evil spoken of :
*
For the kingdom of God is not meat and drink ;
but righteousness ,
and peace ,
and joy in the Holy Ghost .
*
For he that in these things serveth Christ is acceptable to God ,
and approved of men .
*
Let us therefore follow after the things which make for peace ,
and things wherewith one may edify another .
*
For meat destroy not the work of God .
All things indeed are pure ;
but it is evil for that man who eateth with offence .
*
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 .
*
Hast thou faith ?
have it to thyself before God .
Happy is he that condemneth not himself in that thing which he alloweth .
*
And he that doubteth is damned if he eat ,
because he eateth not of faith :
for whatsoever is not of faith is sin .
