Right Start Radio With Pastor Jim Custer

All God's children need principles! We've been studying Romans 14, and how we should handle legitimate differences of opinion on how we interface with the world. At this point we've left the land of laws and rigid rules. But does that mean we have no objective guideposts at all? Today Pastor Jim will show us some principles from this chapter that can serve as our compass. My principles might not be shared by someone else, but they can keep me from going off track.

What if we're both right? Some people like things to be tidy. We like a neat workspace, an orderly flow of traffic, and a theology with no loose ends. We want right to be right and wrong to be wrong, always and for everybody. Well, God seems to have left some ambiguities just to challenge people like us. On the fringes of His great tapestry, the "tie that binds" may look more like a stray thread. Here's Jim in Romans, chapter 14.

It's the carnivores vs. the vegetarians! The early Christians in Rome had a problem. Some wanted to honor God by abstaining from meat and enjoying holy days; others wanted to honor God by doing the reverse. Apparently there wasn't a king-like human authority in the church... in Rome... who could decide the matter for them. To this day similar disagreements continue to give Christians reasons to either judge each other, or accept our differences.

The only rational course is to be ready to go at any moment. We might go the usual way, or we could be "snatched up" in the Harpazo - the Rapture. Today Jim will show us 6 pieces of baggage we should get rid of, and one item that we want to be wearing whenever our journey happens. We're in Romans 13 for the second half of, Hope's Hardest Test.
