Romans
14:1-4 Him that is weak in the faith receive you, but not to doubtful
disputations. For one believeth that he may eat all things; another, who
is weak, eateth herbs. Let not him that eateth despise him that eateth
not; and let not him which eateth not judge him that eateth. for God hath
received him. Who art thou that judgest another man's servant? to his own
master he standeth or falleth. Yea, he shall be holden up: for God is able
to make him stand.
Romans
14:5 One man esteemeth one day above another. Another esteemeth every
day alike. Let every man be fully persuaded in his own mind.
Romans
14:6 He that regardeth the day, regardeth it unto the Lord; and he
that regardeth not the day, to the Lord he doth not regard it. He that
eateth, eateth to the Lord, for he giveth God thanks; and he that eateth
not, to the Lord he eateth not, and givesGod thanks.
Romans
14:7 For none of us liveth to himself and no man dieth to himself.

we die unto the Lord. Whether we live therefore, or die, we are the Lord's.

and revived, that he might be Lord both of the dead and living.
Romans

nought.(despise).thy
brother? For we shall all stand before the judgment seat of Christ.
Romans
14:11 For it is written, As I live, saith the Lord, every knee shall
bow to me and every tongue shall confess to God.
Romans
14:12 So then every one of us shall give account of himself to God.
Romans
14:13 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.
Romans
14:14 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.
Romans
14:15 But if thy brother be grieved with thy meat.(original

Destroy not him with thy meat, for whom Christ died.
Romans
14:16 Let not then your good be evil spoken of.

meat and drink.(the
physical things); but righteousness
and

in the Holy Ghost.(the
spiritual things, the things of attitude, an attitude of love).
Romans
14:18 For he that in these things serveth Christ is acceptable to God
and approved of men.

and things wherewith one may edify another.

is 'food, the act of eating').destroy
not the work of God. All things indeed are pure; but it is evil for that
man who eateth with offence.

whereby thy brother stumbleth, or is offended, or is made weak.

condemneth not himself in that thing which he alloweth.
Romans
14:23 And he that doubts is damned if he eat.(*),
because he eateth not of faith; for whatsoever is not of faith is sin.(or,
'misses the mark' as the original has it; misses the mark of a
spiritual relationship with the Great Infinite One).
