Two Questions – Romans 14:10-11
Vs 10 – Paul then asks two
questions. Why do you judge your brother
and why do you look down on your brother? Pointed and direct questions. This must have been a problem then as it is
now. Passing judgment on another shows
immaturity and carnality on the part of the person who is judging. One day we will all have to stand in the
judgment seat. Jesus said that in the
same way you judge others the Lord will judge us. A good warning to heed and a good reason not
to judge.
Vs 11 – Paul then quotes
Isaiah 45:23 about how one day every knee will bow and every tongue will
confess the Lord. All creation will have
to give an account. I look forward to
the day when satan will be brought before the Lord and will have to confess his
obedience to the Lord. He will say, “Jesus
is Lord.” We will be there to see it. All rebels no matter who they are will give
an account and be judged accordingly. It
is a terrible thing to fall in the hands of an angry and just God. That is why we should be so grateful for the
blood of Jesus Christ that cleanses us from all sin.
