1 |
But him that is weak in faith receive ye, yet not for decision of scruples. |
2 |
One man hath faith to eat all things: but he that is weak eateth herbs. |
3 |
Let not him that eateth set at nought him that eateth not; and let not him that eateth not judge him that eateth: for YAHUVEH hath received him. |
4 |
Who art thou that judgest the servant of another? to his own master he standeth or falleth. Yea, he shall be made to stand; for the Master hath power to make him stand. |
5 |
One man esteemeth one day above another: another esteemeth every day alike. Let each man be fully assured in his own mind. |
6 |
He that regardeth the day, regardeth it unto YAHUVEH: and he that eateth, eateth unto YAHUVEH, for he giveth YAHUVEH thanks; and he that eateth not, unto YAHUVEH he eateth not, and giveth YAHUVEH thanks. |
7 |
For none of us liveth to himself, and none dieth to himself. |
8 |
For whether we live, we live unto the Master; or whether we die, we die unto the Master: whether we live therefore, or die, we are the Master's. |
9 |
For to this end Messiah died and lived again, that he might be Master of both the dead and the living. |
10 |
But thou, why dost thou judge thy brother? or thou again, why dost thou set at nought thy brother? for we shall all stand before the judgment-seat of YAHUVEH. |
11 |
For it is written, As I live, saith YAHUVEH, to me every knee shall bow, And every tongue shall confess to YAHUVEH. |
12 |
So then each one of us shall give account of himself to YAHUVEH. |
13 |
Let us not therefore judge one another any more: but judge ye this rather, that no man put a stumblingblock in his brother's way, or an occasion of falling. |
14 |
I know, and am persuaded in the Master YAHUSHUA, that nothing is unclean of itself: save that to him who accounteth anything to be unclean, to him it is unclean. |
15 |
For if because of meat thy brother is grieved, thou walkest no longer in love. Destroy not with thy meat him for whom Messiah died. |
16 |
Let not then your good be evil spoken of: |
17 |
for the kingdom of YAHUVEH is not eating and drinking, but righteousness and peace and joy in the Holy Spirit. |
18 |
For he that herein serveth Messiah is well-pleasing to YAHUVEH, and approved of men. |
19 |
So then let us follow after things which make for peace, and things whereby we may edify one another. |
20 |
Overthrow not for meat's sake the work of YAHUVEH. All things indeed are clean; howbeit it is evil for that man who eateth with offence. |
21 |
It is good not to eat flesh, nor to drink wine, nor to do anything whereby thy brother stumbleth. |
22 |
The faith which thou hast, have thou to thyself before YAHUVEH. Happy is he that judgeth not himself in that which he approveth. |
23 |
But he that doubteth is condemned if he eat, because he eateth not of faith; and whatsoever is not of faith is sin. |
