1Receive the one who is weak in faith, not for disputes over opinions.

2One person believes he may eat anything, but the one who is weak eats vegetables.

3The one who eats must not despise the one who does not eat, and the one who does not eat must not judge the one who eats, for God has welcomed him.

4Who are you to judge another's household servant? He stands or falls before his own lord, and he will be made to stand, for the Lord is able to make him stand.
