Romans 14:1–12

¹Now him that is weak in the faith receive, not to the determining of questions of reasoning. ²One man is assured that he may eat all things; but the weak eats herbs. ³Let 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. ⁴Who 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. ⁵One man esteems day more than day; another esteems every day alike. Let each be fully persuaded in his own mind. ⁶He 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. ⁷For none of us lives to himself, and none dies to himself. ⁸For 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. ⁹For to this end Christ has died and lived again, that he might rule over both dead and living. ¹⁰But thou, why judgest thou thy brother? or again, thou, why dost thou make little of thy brother? for we shall all be placed before the judgment-seat of God. ¹¹For it is written, I live, saith the Lord, that to me shall bow every knee, and every tongue shall confess to God. ¹²So then each of us shall give an account concerning himself to God.
