The following is the results of your search for damnation.
Damnation: In
(Romans 13:2) means "condemnation," which comes on those who withstand
God's ordinance of magistracy. This sentence of condemnation comes
not from the magistrate, but from God, whose authority is thus
resisted. In
(1 Corinthians 11:29) (R.V., "judgment") this word means
condemnation, in the sense of exposure to severe temporal judgements
from God, as the following verse explains. In
(Romans 14:23) the word
"damned" means "condemned" by one's own conscience, as well as by the
Word of God. The apostle shows here that many things which are lawful
are not expedient; and that in using our Christian liberty the
question should not simply be, Is this course I follow lawful? but
also, Can I follow it without doing injury to the spiritual interests
of a brother in Christ? He that "doubteth", i.e., is not clear in his
conscience as to "meats", will violate his conscience "if he eat,"
and in eating is condemned; and thus one ought not so to use his
liberty as to lead one who is "weak" to bring upon himself this
condemnation.
