Modern believers are witnesses to the sharp ideological divide between the beliefs of this world and the mission of the church. While the essential truth of the gospel unites people of all ages, races, genders, socioeconomic status, nationalities, etc., the current secular culture would argue that these very demographics are reasons for our division, the human default setting in a broken world. Pastor John wraps up his teaching of Romans this week with a fiery message that calls the church to protect its unity and its doctrinal integrity. The Apostle Paul cautions believers to beware of the divisive inclinations of those who distort God's Word and lead others astray with their self-serving religions. The gospel truth eternally binds believers in unity, inviting us into a more intimate relationship with our Lord Jesus Christ, and strengthening us by His display of love, humility, and forgiveness.
