Romans 14:9-11 For because of this Christ both died and arose, and he became alive so that he might be Lord over both the dead and the living.

ACV⁽ⁱ⁾ ⁹ For because of this Christ both died and arose, and he became alive so that he might be Lord over both the dead and the living. ¹⁰ But why do thou criticize thy brother? Or also why do thou disdain thy brother? For we will all stand before the judgment seat of Christ. ¹¹ For it is written, I live, says the Lord, that every knee will bow to me, and every tongue will confess to God.
