Romans14:10

10. But why dost thou judge thy brother? or why dost thou set at nought thy Brother? for we shall all stand before the judgment-seat of Christ .

He goes on to perswade them to a Mutual Forbearance, to Dehort them from Condemning or Contemning one another, about indifferent things. He suggests Two Arguments against it in this Verse; One (which is more implyed) is taken from the Relation they bore one to another; they were Brethren, not by natural Generation, but by Regeneration and Adoption; They had the same Father, even God. The Second Argument is more plainly Expressed; and 'tis taken from the Consideration of the Day of Iudgment, when All shall stand before Christ's Iudgment-Seat, vid. 2 Cor. 5.10. All, both the Strong and the Weak: And then He will determine who hath done Well or Il[illegible: 1 letter]. In the mean while, Who art thou that darest to Usurp His Place or Office? The Interrogation hath not only the Force of a strong Denial, q. d. Have you no more Grace, Charity, or Wisdom, than so to do.

Marginal references: Or, be set.
