Romans 14:5-7

Do Not Pass Judgment on One Another

⁵ _q One person esteems one day as better than another, while another esteems all days alike. _r Each one should be fully convinced in his own mind. ⁶ The one who observes the day, observes it in honor of the Lord. The one who eats, eats in honor of the Lord, since _s he gives thanks to God, while the one who abstains, abstains in honor of the Lord and gives thanks to God. ⁷ For _t none of us lives to himself, and none of us dies to himself.
