Gottes Neue Offenbarungen

The Epistle of Paul the Apostle to the Romans

Literal Standard Version :: World English Bible Catholic

- Kapitel 14 -

(Matthew 7:1–6; Luke 6:37–42)
1
And receive him who is weak in the faithnot to determinations of reasonings;
2
one believes that he may eat all thingsand he who is weak eats herbs;
3
do not let him who is eating despise him who is not eating: and do not let him who is not eating judge him who is eating, for God received him.
4
Youwho are you that are judging anothers domestic [affairs]? To his own master he stands or falls; and he will be made to stand, for God is able to make him stand.
5
One judges one day above another, and another judges every day [alike]; let each be fully assured in his own mind.
6
He who is regarding the day, he regards [it] to the LORD, and he who is not regarding the day, he does not regard [it] to the LORD. He who is eating, he eats to the LORD, for he gives thanks to God; and he who is not eating, he does not eat to the LORD, and gives thanks to God.
7
For none of us lives to himself, and none dies to himself;
8
for both, if we may live, we live to the LORD; if also we may die, we die to the LORD; both then if we may live, also if we may die, we are the LORDs;
9
for because of this Christ both died and rose again, and lived again, that He may be Lord both of dead and of living.
10
And you, why do you judge your brother? Or again, you, why do you set at nothing your brother? For we will all stand at the judgment seat of the Christ;
11
for it has been written: “I live! Says the LORDEvery knee will bow to Me, and every tongue will confess to God”;
12
so, then, each of us will give reckoning to God concerning himself;

The Law of Love

(Ezekiel 14:1–11; 1 Corinthians 8:1–13)
13
therefore, may we judge one another no longer, but rather judge this, not to put a stumbling-stone before the brother, or an offense.
14
I have known, and am persuaded, in the Lord Jesus, that nothing [is] unclean of itself, except to him who is reckoning anything to be uncleanto that one [it is] unclean;
15
and if your brother is grieved through food, you no longer walk according to love; do not destroy with your food that one for whom Christ died.
16
Do not let, then, evil be spoken of your good,
17
for the Kingdom of God is not eating and drinking, but righteousness, and peace, and joy in the Holy Spirit;
18
for he who in these things is serving the Christ, [is] acceptable to God and approved of men.
19
So, then, may we pursue the things of peace, and the things of building up one another.
20
Do not cast down the work of God for the sake of food; all things, indeed, [are] pure, but evil [is] to the man who is eating through stumbling.
21
[It is] not right to eat flesh, nor to drink wine, nor to [do anything] in which your brother stumbles, or is made to fall, or is weak.
22
You have faith! Have [it] to yourself before God; blessed is he who is not judging himself in what he approves,
23
and he who is making a difference, if he may eat, has been condemned, because [it is] not of faith; and all that [is] not of faith is sin.
(Matthew 7:1–6; Luke 6:37–42)
1
Now accept one who is weak in faith, but not for disputes over opinions.
2
One man has faith to eat all things, but he who is weak eats only vegetables.
3
Don’t let him who eats despise him who doesn’t eat. Don’t let him who doesn’t eat judge him who eats, for God has accepted him.
4
Who are you who judge anothers servant? To his own lord he stands or falls. Yes, he will be made to stand, for God has power to make him stand.
5
One man esteems one day as more important. Another esteems every day alike. Let each man be fully assured in his own mind.
6
He who observes the day, observes it to the Lord; and he who does not observe the day, to the Lord he does not observe it. He who eats, eats to the Lord, for he gives God thanks. He who doesn’t eat, to the Lord he doesn’t eat, and gives God thanks.
7
For none of us lives to himself, and none dies to himself.
8
For if we live, we live to the Lord. Or if we die, we die to the Lord. If therefore we live or die, we are the Lords.
9
For to this end Christ died, rose, and lived again, that he might be Lord of both the dead and the living.
10
But you, why do you judge your brother? Or you again, why do you despise your brother? For we will all stand before the judgment seat of Christ.
11
For it is written, “‘As I live,’ says the Lord, ‘to me every knee will bow. Every tongue will confess to God.’”(a)
12
So then each one of us will give account of himself to God.

The Law of Love

(Ezekiel 14:1–11; 1 Corinthians 8:1–13)
13
Therefore let’s not judge one another any more, but judge this rather, that no man put a stumbling block in his brother’s way, or an occasion for falling.
14
I know and am persuaded in the Lord Jesus that nothing is unclean of itself; except that to him who considers anything to be unclean, to him it is unclean.
15
Yet if because of food your brother is grieved, you walk no longer in love. Don’t destroy with your food him for whom Christ died.
16
Then don’t let your good be slandered,
17
for God’s Kingdom is not eating and drinking, but righteousness, peace, and joy in the Holy Spirit.
18
For he who serves Christ in these things is acceptable to God and approved by men.
19
So then, let’s follow after things which make for peace, and things by which we may build one another up.
20
Don’t overthrow God’s work for food’s sake. All things indeed are clean, however it is evil for that man who creates a stumbling block by eating.
21
It is good to not eat meat, drink wine, nor do anything by which your brother stumbles, is offended, or is made weak.
22
Do you have faith? Have it to yourself before God. Happy is he who doesn’t judge himself in that which he approves.
23
But he who doubts is condemned if he eats, because it isn’t of faith; and whatever is not of faith is sin. Now to him who is able to establish you according to my Good News and the preaching of Jesus Christ, according to the revelation of the mystery which has been kept secret through long ages, but now is revealed, and by the Scriptures of the prophets, according to the commandment of the eternal God, is made known for obedience of faith to all the nations; to the only wise God, through Jesus Christ, to whom be the glory forever! Amen.(b)
