Matthew(i)
1 Hym that is weake in the fayth, receyue vnto you, not in disputynge and troublyng hys conscience.
2 One beleued that he maye eate all thynge. Another whiche is weake, eateth herbes.
3 Let not hym that eateth, dispyse hym that eateth not. And let not hym whiche eateth not, iudge him that eateth. For God hath receyued hym,
4 What arte thou, that iudgeste another mans seruaunte? Whether he stande or fall that pertayneth vnto hys mayster: yea he shall stande. For God is able to make him stande.
5 Thys man putteth difference betwene day and daye. Another man counted all dayes a lyke. Se that no man wauer in hys owne meanynge.
6 He that obserueth one daye more then another, doth it for the Lordes pleasure. And he that obserueth not one day more then another, doeth it to please the Lorde also. He that eateth, doeth it to please the Lorde, for he geueth God thankes.
7 And he that eateth not, eateth not to please the Lorde with all, & geueth God thankes.
8 For none of vs lyueth his owne seruaunt: neyther doeth anye of vs dye hys owne seruaunte. Yf we lyue, we lyue to be at the Lordes wyll. And yf we dye, we dye at the Lordes wyll. Whether we lyue therfore or dye, we are the Lordes.
9 For Christe therfore dyed, and rose agayne, and reuyued that he myght be Lord both of dead & quicke.
10 But why doest thou then iudge thy brother? Other why doeste thou despyse thy brother? We shall all be brought before the iudgement seate of Christe.
11 For it is wrytten: as truelye as I lyue sayth the Lorde: all knees shall bowe to me, and all tonges shall geue a knowledge to God.
12 So shall euery one of vs, geue accomptes of hym selfe to GOD.
