Wednesday, April 30, 2025 Romans 14:6-14, 21 “Unity Despite Diversity, Part 3”

A church can’t have diversity on the Gospel, on the view of scripture, or on the core doctrines of the faith. But because a “transformed mind” takes time (in fact, an entire lifetime) to develop after we are saved, people will inevitably be marked by diversity in their convictions on issues beyond the core issues above and therefore a church will as well. Romans 14 and 15 helps us to understand how to live in harmony despite such diversity. Vs. 6-14 reminds us to make sure our motive in the issue is “to honor the Lord”, to accept that only God can know another person’s true motives, and to avoid encouraging others to ignore their conscience on an issue (i.e., if you feeling guilt or lack of peace, then don’t do it).

A church can’t have diversity on the Gospel, on the view of scripture, or on the core doctrines of the faith.

Chapter 13 ends with three commands that capstone the theme of 12:1 “being living sacrifices”. God calls us to “wake-up and being in a spiritual stupor”, “put-off the flesh and walk properly”, and “put-on the Lord Jesus Christ”.

Wednesday, March 26, 2025 Romans 13:8-10 “Our Debt of Love”

This passage speaks to the issue of debt – that we are to have no defaulted debts. In the context of debt, God explains we each of the debt of AGAPE love to be paid back to our fellow man. This is a debt that is new every morning. It is a debt that calls for us to act in line with the scriptures, not merely be driven by affection. It is a debt requiring nothing less than salvation and surrender!

Wednesday, March 19, 2025 Romans 13:1-7 “Responding To Secular Authority, Part 2”

God explains in Romans 13:1-7 exactly how “presenting our bodies as living sacrifices” should affect how we respond to the civil, secular authorities under which we live. Third, we need to understand that rebelling against secular civil authority equals rebelling against God. Fourth, Doing right will reduce conflicts with secular civil authority. Fifth, be subject to secular civil authority, motivated by both a proper fear and the determination to maintain a clear conscience. Finally, we are to show support for secular civil authority through willingness to pay both taxes and revenue, and by determining to show both respect and honor in our speech and actions toward them.
