Disagreements Among Christians!

There are so many disagreements amount Christians today.  Masks, vaccines, CRT, just to name a few…Then there is gay marriage, abortion, whether God belongs in the voting booth…The list is long! And we all feel very strongly on many of these issues…

But what does God really say about disagreements?

“Why do you pass judgment on your brother? Or you, why do you despise your brother? For we will all stand before the judgment seat of God;  for it is written,

As I live, says the Lord, every knee shall bow to me, and every tongue shall confess^[b] to God.

So then each of us will give an account of himself to God.”-Romans 14:10-12

In fact, all of Romans 14 is helpful on this subject!

We are all on the same path, but often we are at different places on it, so we may not always see things the same way.  But we are still on the same path, just at different places.. 

God’s Word provides us with instructions on how to live.  His Word decrees what actions are right and what actions are wrong.  We, as human beings, don’t get to make those choices, God does!

Disagreements with each other are one thing, but disagreements with God are another.  And that is why it is so important for us to ask the Holy Spirit to read God’s Word with us. For Truth by its’ very nature has only has one version!

And because God made us, God ultimately knows what choices will make us happy.  And God knows what choices will bring us to Heaven.  And in the end, it is God who will judge us.  We need to worry more about God’s Judgement and less about the judgement of others.
