Romans 14

Father, give me discernment and understanding for I do not want to get off track regarding fellowship with those believers who differ with me on parts of your gospel doctrine that seem disputable.

It is not my job to judge your servants. You, father, are the master. It is before you only that each of us stands or falls. Indeed, father, it is you alone who makes us able to stand.

For none of us live to himself, and no one dies to himself. For we live to you, father, and when we die, we die to you. Whether we live or die we are yours.

I seek to be fully convinced of right doctrine through your word, and through communion with your Holy Spirit, and through fellowship in your church. Let each of your people do the same. We may then still differ on details, but let us agree on Christ.

So, I do not judge my brother. I do not show contempt for my brother’s faith. For your kingdom, father, is more than disputable details of food, drink, and denominational traditions and opinions.

Your kingdom is righteousness, peace, and joy in the Holy Spirit. I serve Christ in these things and that is acceptable to you, father, and a pleasure to most men. Hallelujah.
