God's Righteousness Lived Out: Honoring Convictions While Extending Grace

In Romans 14, Paul provides categories and principles to foster unity among brothers with different consciences. He outlines that we believers, proceeding from faith, welcome and honor one another, put off passing judgment on one another in matters of conscience--because we live and die to the Lord--and instead, we pursue peace with each other, building up one another and God’s kingdom of righteousness, PEACE, and joy!
