Romans 14:7-9

MLV(i) 7 For none of us is living to himself, and none dies to himself. 8 For in both, if we live, we live to the Lord; and if we die, we die to the Lord; therefore, in both, if we live or die, we are the Lord’s. 9 For Christ both died and rose up and lived for this, in order that he might have lordship over both the dead and the living.
