Romans 14:4
_ _ Who art thou that judges another man’s — rather, “another’s”
_ _ servant? — that is, Christ’s, as the whole context shows, especially Romans 14:8, Romans 14:9.
_ _ Yea, etc. — “But he shall be made to stand, for God is able to make him stand”; that is, to make good his standing, not at the day of judgment, of which the apostle treats in Romans 14:10, but in the true fellowship of the Church here, in spite of thy censures. |
Romans 14:4
(5) Who art thou that judgest another man's servant? to his own master he standeth or falleth. Yea, he shall be holden up: for God is able to make him stand.
(5) Another reason which depends upon the former: why the novice and more unlearned ought not to be condemned by the more experienced, as men without hope of salvation: because, says the apostle, he that is ignorant today, may be endued tomorrow with further knowledge, so that he may also stand sure: therefore it belongs to God, and not to man, to pronounce the sentence of condemnation. |
