1
Receive one who is weak in the faith, but not to disputes over doubtful things.
2
For one believes he may eat all things, but he who is weak eats only vegetables.
3
Let not him who eats despise him who does not eat, and let not him who does not eat judge him who eats; for God has received him.
4
Who are you to judge another's servant? To his own master he stands or falls. Indeed, he will be made to stand, for God is able to make him stand.
5
One person esteems one day above another; another esteems every day alike. Let each be fully convinced 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; and he who does not eat, to the Lord he does not eat, and gives God thanks.
7
For none of us lives to himself, and no one dies to himself.
8
For if we live, we live to the Lord; and if we die, we die to the Lord. Therefore, whether we live or die, we are the Lord's.
