| 3 | 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. | The one who eats everything must not belittle the one who does not, and the one who does not eat everything must not judge the one who does, for God has accepted him. | Let not him that eateth set at nought him that eateth not; and let not him that eateth not judge him that eateth: for God hath received him. |
In context
AI-assisted, sourcedRomans 14:1-12Do not judge your brother
About Romans 14"Him that is weak in the faith receive ye, but not to doubtful disputations": one eats all things and another only herbs, one esteems one day above another, and "Let every man be fully persuaded in his own mind," for "whether we live therefore, or die, we are the Lord's." We must not judge one another, "for we shall all stand before the judgment seat of Christ," but rather resolve "that no man put a stumblingblock or an occasion to fall in his brother's way." "The kingdom of God is not meat and drink; but righteousness, and peace, and joy in the Holy Ghost," so "follow after the things which make for peace," for "whatsoever is not of faith is sin."
