Who are you to judge another's servant? To his own master he stands or falls, indeed he will be made to stand, for God is able to make him stand.
In this episode of 'How it Happens with Colin Cook', Colin dives into the complexities of faith and doctrine, exploring how differences among Christians can lead to unnecessary disputes. Drawing from Romans 14:1-7, Colin explains how Paul urged believers to accept each other despite differing views on dietary practices and holy days. The episode highlights the importance of focusing on the central tenet of Christianity—Jesus Christ—and avoiding judgment or contempt towards fellow believers.
Colin uses vivid examples, like debates over eating meat offered to idols, to illustrate how stronger and weaker faiths can coexist harmoniously. He emphasises that Christians should not judge or despise one another based on their personal convictions but rather see each other as God's children. This episode encourages you to reflect on your own attitudes and how you relate to others in your faith community.
Are you judging your neighbour for their liberties or burdening them with your own rules? By keeping Christ at the centre, Colin suggests that unity and love can prevail over division and judgement. Tune in for a thought-provoking discussion that reminds us all to focus on what truly unites us.
