Accept One Another

Nov 6, 2011Dr. John King, Senior PastorAccept One AnotherThe One Anothers

This message focuses on the biblical command to accept one another, particularly within the body of Christ. The speaker emphasizes that acceptance does not mean endorsing every viewpoint or lifestyle, but rather warmly welcoming others despite differences. The message highlights two main violations of this command: judgmentalism and prejudice. The speaker encourages listeners to reflect on their attitudes and to embrace others, regardless of their backgrounds or convictions, as Christ accepted them.

Romans 15:7Romans 14:1Romans 12:16Ephesians 2:11-13James 2:1-9Galatians 3:28
