“You cannot judge the servants of someone else. Their own master decides if they are doing right or wrong. And the Lord’s servants will be right, because the Lord is able to make them right.”

“Be willing to accept those who still have doubts about what believers can do. And don’t argue with them about their different ideas.
Some people believe they can eat any kind of food, but those who have doubts eat only vegetables.
Those who know they can eat any kind of food must not feel that they are better than those who eat only vegetables. And those who eat only vegetables must not decide that those who eat all foods are wrong. God has accepted them.”

“We should live in a right way, like people who belong to the day. We should not have wild parties or be drunk. We should not be involved in sexual sin or any kind of immoral behavior. We should not cause arguments and trouble or be jealous.
But be like the Lord Jesus Christ, so that when people see what you do, they will see Christ. Don’t think about how to satisfy the desires of your sinful self.”

“The law says, “You must not commit adultery, you must not murder anyone, you must not steal, you must not want what belongs to someone else.” All these commands and all other commands are really only one rule: “Love your neighbor the same as you love yourself.”
Love doesn’t hurt others. So loving is the same as obeying all the law.”

“And this is why you pay taxes too. Those rulers are working for God, and they give all their time to the work of ruling.
Give everyone what you owe them. If you owe them any kind of tax, then pay it. Show respect to those you should respect. And show honor to those you should honor.”

“People who do right don’t have to fear the rulers. But those who do wrong must fear them. Do you want to be free from fearing them? Then do only what is right, and they will praise you.
Rulers are God’s servants to help you. But if you do wrong, you have reason to be afraid. They have the power to punish, and they will use it. They are God’s servants to punish those who do wrong.
So you must obey the government, not just because you might be punished, but because you know it is the right thing to do.”

“All of you must obey the government rulers. Everyone who rules was given the power to rule by God. And all those who rule now were given that power by God.”
