Romans 14:1-13

This sermon explores Romans 14, focusing on how believers should live in harmony despite differences in non-essential matters of faith. The pastor emphasizes the distinction between fundamental doctrines (like the deity of Christ and salvation by grace) and secondary issues (like dietary practices, Bible translations, worship days, and music styles). The core message is that while Christians must stand firm on essential truths, they should extend grace and avoid judgment on matters of personal conviction. The sermon stresses that all believers will stand before God individually, and our role is to help rather than hinder our brothers and sisters in Christ. The pastor illustrates these principles with contemporary examples including debates over Bible versions (King James Only vs. modern translations), worship music styles (hymns vs. contemporary), and observance of special days, calling the church to unity in Christ while respecting diversity in practice.
