Romans 14:1-7 International Children’s Bible (ICB)

1. Do not refuse to accept into your group someone who is weak in faith. And do not argue with him about opinions.

2. One person believes that he can eat all kinds of food. But if another man’s faith is weak, then he believes he can eat only vegetables.

3. The one who knows that he can eat any kind of food must not feel that he is better than the one who eats only vegetables. And the person who eats only vegetables must not think that the one who eats all foods is wrong. God has accepted him.

4. You cannot judge another man’s servant. His own master decides if he is doing well or not. And the Lord’s servant will do well because the Lord helps him do well.

5. One person thinks that one day is more important than another. And someone else thinks that every day is the same. Each one should be sure in his own mind.

6. The person who thinks one day is more important than other days is doing that for the Lord. And the one who eats all kinds of food is doing that for the Lord. Yes, he gives thanks to God for that food. And the man who refuses to eat some foods does that for the Lord, and he gives thanks to God.

7. For we do not live or die for ourselves.
