Romans 14:10-13
English Standard Version
Romans 14:10-13
English Standard Version
10 Why do you pass judgment on your brother? Or you, why do you despise your brother? For (A)we will all stand before (B)the judgment seat of God; 11 for it is written,
(C)“As I live, says the Lord, every knee shall bow to me,
and every tongue shall confess[a] to God.”
12 So then (D)each of us will give an account of himself to God.
Do Not Cause Another to Stumble
13 (E)Therefore let us not pass judgment on one another any longer, but rather decide (F)never to put a stumbling block or hindrance in the way of a brother.
