Bible verse
It is written: “As surely as I live, says the Lord, every knee will bow before Me; every tongue will confess to God.”
Romans 14:11 · BSB
The verses around it, from Romans 14.
7 For none of us lives to himself alone, and none of us dies to himself alone.
8 If we live, we live to the Lord, and if we die, we die to the Lord. So whether we live or die, we belong to the Lord.
9 For this reason Christ died and returned to life, that He might be the Lord of both the dead and the living.
10 Why, then, do you judge your brother? Or why do you belittle your brother? For we will all stand before God’s judgment seat.
11 It is written: “As surely as I live, says the Lord, every knee will bow before Me; every tongue will confess to God.”
12 So then, each of us will give an account of himself to God.
13 Therefore let us stop judging one another. Instead, make up your mind not to put any stumbling block or obstacle in your brother’s way.
14 I am convinced and fully persuaded in the Lord Jesus that nothing is unclean in itself. But if anyone regards something as unclean, then for him it is unclean.
15 If your brother is distressed by what you eat, you are no longer acting in love. Do not by your eating destroy your brother, for whom Christ died.
