Dual Panel1Now<1161> accept<4355> the one who is weak<770> in faith<4102>, but not for the purpose of passing<1253> judgment<1253> on his opinions<1261>.
2One<3739><3303> person has<4100> faith<4100> that he may eat<2068> all<3956> things<3956>, but he who is weak<770> eats<2068> vegetables<3001> only.
3The one<3739> who eats<2068> is not to regard<1848> with contempt<1848> the one<3588> who does not eat<2068>, and the one<3739> who does not eat<2068> is not to judge<2919> the one<3588> who eats<2068>, for God<2316> has accepted<4355> him.
4Who<5101> are you to judge<2919> the servant<3610> of another<245>? To his own<2398> master<2962> he stands<4739> or<2228> falls<4098>; and he will stand<2476>, for the Lord<2962> is able<1414> to make<2476> him stand<2476>.
5One<3739><3303> person regards<2919> one day<2250> above<3844> another<2250>, another<3739><1161> regards<2919> every<3956> day<2250> alike. Each<1538> person<1538> must be fully<4135> convinced<4135> in his own<2398> mind<3563>.
6He who observes<5426> the day<2250>, observes<5426> it for the Lord<2962>, and he who eats<2068>, does<2068> so<2068> for the Lord<2962>, for he gives<2168> thanks<2168> to God<2316>; and he who eats<2068> not, for the Lord<2962> he does not eat<2068>, and gives<2168> thanks<2168> to God<2316>.
7For not one<3762> of us lives<2198> for himself<1438>, and not one<3762> dies<599> for himself<1438>;
8for if<1437> we live<2198>, we live<2198> for the Lord<2962>, or<5037> if<1437> we die<599>, we die<599> for the Lord<2962>; therefore<3767> whether<1437><5037> we live<2198> or<1437><5037> die<599>, we are the Lord's<2962>.
9For to this<3778> end Christ<5547> died<599> and lived<2198> again, that He might be Lord<2961> both<2532> of the dead<3498> and of the living<2198>.
10But you, why<5101> do you judge<2919> your brother<80>? Or<2228> you again<2532>, why<5101> do you regard<1848> your brother<80> with contempt<1848>? For we will all<3956> stand<3936> before<3936> the judgment<968> seat<968> of God<2316>.
11For it is written<1125>, "AS I LIVE<2198>, SAYS<3004> THE LORD<2962>, EVERY<3956> KNEE<1119> SHALL BOW<2578> TO ME, AND EVERY<3956> TONGUE<1100> SHALL GIVE<1843> PRAISE<1843> TO GOD<2316>."
12So<686> then<686> each<1538> one<1538> of us will give<1325> an account<3056> of himself<1438> to God<2316>.
13Therefore<3767> let us not judge<2919> one<240> another<240> anymore<3371>, but rather<3123> determine<2919> this<3778>--not to put<5087> an obstacle<4348> or<2228> a stumbling<4625> block<4625> in a brother's<80> way.
14I know<3609> and am convinced<3982> in the Lord<2962> Jesus<2424> that nothing<3762> is unclean<2839> in itself<1438>; but to him who thinks<3049> anything<5100> to be unclean<2839>, to him it is unclean<2839>.
15For if<1487> because<1223> of food<1033> your brother<80> is hurt<3076>, you are no<3765> longer<3765> walking<4043> according<2596> to love<26>. Do not destroy<622> with your food<1033> him for whom<3739> Christ<5547> died<599>.
16Therefore<3767> do not let what<18> is for you a good<18> thing<18> be spoken<987> of as evil<987>;
17for the kingdom<932> of God<2316> is not eating<1035> and drinking<4213>, but righteousness<1343> and peace<1515> and joy<5479> in the Holy<40> Spirit<4151>.
18For he who in this<3778> way serves<1398> Christ<5547> is acceptable<2101> to God<2316> and approved<1384> by men<444>.
19So<686> then<686> we pursue<1377> the things which make for peace<1515> and the building<3619> up of one<240> another<240>.
20Do not tear<2647> down<2647> the work<2041> of God<2316> for the sake<1752> of food<1033>. All<3956> things<3956> indeed<3303> are clean<2513>, but they are evil<2556> for the man<444> who eats<2068> and gives<1223> offense<4348>.
21It is good<2570> not to eat<2068> meat<2907> or<3366> to drink<4095> wine<3631>, or<3366> to do anything by which<3739> your brother<80> stumbles<4350>.
22The faith<4102> which<3739> you have<2192>, have<2192> as your own<4572> conviction<4572> before<1799> God<2316>. Happy<3107> is he who does not condemn<2919> himself<1438> in what<3739> he approves<1381>.
23But he who doubts<1252> is condemned<2632> if<1437> he eats<2068>, because<3754> his eating is not from faith<4102>; and whatever<3956><3739> is not from faith<4102> is sin<266>.
