December 9

Letter to the Romans continued -- Christian Life and Conduct -- Romans 12:1-21, 13:1-14; Regarding Mutual Responsibility -- 14:1-23, 15:1-13; Closing Remarks -- 15:14-33, 16:1-27


Hmmmm, we are best to leave our thoughts on disputable issues between ourselves and God. The kingdom isn't about issues it's about righteousness, peace and joy.  We don't need to let minor disputes and issues stand in the way between our brothers and God.  I guess I'm lucky there's not that many people logging into this blog.  

"For the kingdom of God is not a matter of eating and drinking, but of righteousness, peace and joy in the Holy Spirit, because anyone who serves Christ in this way is pleasing to God and approved by men." [Romans 14:17-18]

"So whatever you believe about these things keep between yourself and God.  Blessed is the man who does not condemn himself by what he approves." [Romans 14:22]
