Recently Pastor Mike preached this sermon at Bethlehem Bible Church in West Boylston, MA. Pastor Mike preaches verse-by-verse, so please open up your Bible to 1 Corinthians 8 and Romans 14 and follow along.
How do you come to Christ Jesus? On your own? With God's help? OR Were you brought to Christ by God Himself? What is Sovereign Grace? What is Election?
If you are a Christian, you did not decide to become a Christian on your own. Nor did you simply decide to cooperate with God. God alone made you a Christian--and our response is: repentance, faith, belief, and a desire to follow Christ Jesus.
In Romans 14, we see the response of Christians, in regards to Christian liberty, as one as a response to Christian love initiated by Christ Jesus. Romans 14 helps us understand 1 Corinthians 8. How do the weak live with the strong? How do the strong live with the weak? How are we to love other Christians?
