For none of us lives to himself, and no man dies to himself.
All Commentaries on Romans 14:7 Go To Romans 14
John Chrysostom
AD 407
This means that we are not free. We have a master who wants us to live and not die, and to whom life and death matter more than they do to us…. For if we die, we do not die to ourselves alone but to our master as well. By “death,” Paul means apostasy from the faith.
