Last week, Pastor Nate walked us through Romans 13, and this Sunday we continued into Romans 14:1–12 with People Over Preferences!!❤️
Romans 14 reminds us that following Jesus means choosing to love people even when we don’t agree with them. Not every disagreement is a matter of right and wrong, and our personal preferences were never meant to become the standard for everyone around us.
As believers, we are called to lovingly hold one another accountable to Christ—& not hold those outside of Christ to something they haven’t surrendered their lives to.
We belong to Christ. We answer to Christ. And ultimately, God is the Judge. Rather than occupying His seat by judging everyone around us, we’re called to love people and point them to Jesus👉👉
Put people before preferences. Put Christ before preferences. And ultimately, lay our preferences at the feet of Jesus.
”for it is written, “As I live, says the Lord, every knee shall bow to me, and every tongue shall confess to God.”“
Romans 14:11 ESV
