14:1HIM that is weak in the faith receive ye, but not to doubtful disputations.

14:2For one believeth that he may eat all things: another, who is weak, eateth herbs.

14:3Let 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.

14:4Who 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.

14:5One man esteemeth one day above another: another esteemeth every day alike. Let every man be fully persuaded in his own mind.

14:6He 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 giveth God thanks.

14:7For none of us liveth to himself, and no man dieth to himself.

14:8For whether we live, we live unto the Lord; and whether we die, we die unto the Lord: whether we live therefore, or die, we are the Lord’s.

14:9For to this end Christ both died, and rose, and revived, that he might be Lord both of the dead and living.
