30. The Characteristics Of The Strong (Romans 15:1-13)
In the past several weeks we have been discussing disputable matters – those issues that are neither prohibited nor commanded in scripture.
With Paul’s’ help we concluded that, In essentials, unity; in non-essentials, liberty; in all things, charity.
Or in the language of our day: Major in the majors and minor in the minors.
In other words, we need to keep the main thing, the main thing. And the main thing is Jesus!
In the closing hours of His life, Jesus prayed four times for the unity of the church (Jn 17:11, 21, 22, 23) -- a remarkable fact considering the limitless number of things that Jesus could have prayed for.
This emphasis in Jesus’ prayer speaks volumes about the importance that God places on unity within the church. In light of this, I find it amazing how quickly we get sidetracked from the “main thing” and allow disputable issues to break our fellowship with other believers and destroy the witness of the church.
Blessings,
