Rom 14:2One person believes in eating everything, but the weak person eats only vegetables.

Rom 14:5

Rom 14:5One person regards one day holier than other days, and another regards them all alike. Each must be fully convinced in his own mind.

Rom 14:6

Rom 14:6The one who observes the day does it for the Lord. The one who eats, eats for the Lord because he gives thanks to God, and the one who abstains from eating abstains for the Lord, and he gives thanks to God.

Rom 14:7

Rom 14:7For none of us lives for himself and none dies for himself.

Rom 14:8

Rom 14:8If we live, we live for the Lord; if we die, we die for the Lord. Therefore, whether we live or die, we are the Lord's.

Rom 14:15For if your brother or sister is distressed because of what you eat, you are no longer walking in love. Do not destroy by your food someone for whom Christ died.

Rom 14:16

Rom 14:16Therefore do not let what you consider good be spoken of as evil.
