What a fantasically wonderful appropriate sermon today at Living Stones!
I am always amazed how most if not all, sermons are directed to me personally!
I know that I am only human, and most humans have all the same trials and triumphs along the way, in different ways, but God just works and hits me every week!
We have been studying vices and how to live with those around you who have different vices than you. Today was the actual, Paul says in Romans, how you do this!
Pick up a bible and read Romans 14-15. Or go to sambarrington.com, on the right side look for pod casts of today's service (up in a few days)
Living Stones Church has a God inspired pastor and congregation.
Learned a bit of history of the Roman church and why there is such a stumbling block about what to eat and what not to eat.
Accept others and don't pass judgement on disputable matters!
Don't look down on another followers actions just because it is different than you would do, for God has accepted him!
If your motivation honors God, it is ok by Him, just as another is fully convinced that his action honors God, is also accepted by the Lord!
Do not do something that will offend a brother and make him stumble, even if it is something that you will not stumble upon. There are times to make your actions known and times when it would not kill you to not act a certain way.
If there is a discussion that you know will offend, answer that you would like to keep that between you and God.
Live free in Jesus Christ because He set us free! But act in love to your sister as well as those who are not free.
