Romans 14:5-7

EasyEnglish Bible

⁵ Some people think that certain days are special and more important than other days. Other people think that all days are the same. Each person should decide what seems right to him. ⁶ A person who makes a certain day special does that so that he can respect the Lord. A person who eats all kinds of food does that so that he can respect the Lord. He thanks God for the food that he eats. A person who refuses to eat certain foods also does that so that he can respect the Lord. And he also thanks God.

⁷ None of us lives only to please ourselves. And we do not die to please ourselves.
