Don’t judge another man’s servant
Don’t judge another man’s servant
Romans 14:1-14
14 Him that is weak (not strong) in the faith (believing) receive (take to oneself) ye, but not to doubtful disputations (the criticizing of thoughts).
2 For one believeth that he may eat all things: another, who is weak (not strong), eateth herbs.
3 Let not him that eateth despise (treat as contemptible) him that eateth not; and let not him which eateth not judge him that eateth: for God hath received him.
4 Who art thou that judgest another man’s servant? to his own master he standeth or falleth. Yea, he shall be holden up: for God (the Lord) is able to make him stand (hold him up).
5 One man esteemeth (judgeth) one day above another: another esteemeth (judgeth) every day alike. Let every man be fully persuaded (assured) in (resting within) his own mind.
6 He 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.
7 For none of us liveth to himself, and no man dieth to himself.
8 For 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.
9 For to this end (unto this) Christ both died, and rose, and revived, that he might be Lord both of the dead and living.
10 But why dost thou judge thy brother? or why dost thou set at nought (despise) thy brother? for we shall all stand before the judgment seat of Christ.
11 For it is written, As I live, saith the Lord, every knee shall bow to me, and every tongue shall confess to God.
12 So then every one of us shall give account of himself to God.
13 Let us not therefore judge one another any more: but judge this rather, that no man put a stumblingblock (a spring trap) or an occasion to fall in his brother’s way.
14 I know, and am persuaded by the Lord Jesus, that there is nothing unclean of itself: but to him that esteemeth any thing to be unclean, to him it is unclean.
Ephesians 3:17-21
Let Christ dwell in your hearts
17 That Christ may dwell in your hearts by faith; that ye, being rooted (taking root) and grounded in love,
18 May be able to comprehend with all saints what is the breadth, and length, and depth, and height;
19 And to know the love of Christ, which passeth knowledge, that ye might be filled with all the fulness of God.
20 Now unto him that (who) is able to do exceeding (infinitely beyond) abundantly above all (all things) that we ask or think, according to the power that worketh in us,
21 Un To him be (the) glory in the church by Christ Jesus throughout all ages, world without end. Amen.
