Romans 14:7-9

EJ2000(i) 7 For none of us live for ourselves, and no one dies for himself. 8 For if we live, we live for the Lord; and if we die, we die for the Lord; whether we live therefore, or die, we are the Lord’s. 9 For to this end Christ both died and rose and revived: to thus exercise lordship over the dead as well as over the living.
