“Now
may the God who gives perseverance and encouragement grant you to be of the same
mind with one another according to Christ Jesus, so that with one accord you
may with one voice glorify the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ. Therefore, accept one another, just as Christ
also accepted us to the glory of God.”
Romans
15:5-8
The
Apostle Paul wanted Christians to present a united front against those who
opposed the church. Christianity still
faces problems with discord between various denominations because they do
not agree on the same interpretation of all the scriptures. While we may not all understand the
scriptures in the same way, we all share the common confession of Jesus Christ,
Lord, Master and Savior.
We
may be different denominations, but we all serve the same God, and we should
act like it and act like we are more alike than different, if for no other
reason than to better present the Gospel to the world.
Now
smile at your brothers and sisters in the Lord.
