A message from Pastor Mike
Love is willing to sacrifice freedoms in matters of conscience for the sake of others around us who might struggle with such freedoms in their own conscience unto God. For to violate one’s conscience in action is to sin against God who is alive in you. To self-sacrifice a freedom for the sake of a brother/sister, is not to avoid causing offense, but to avoid causing the ‘weak in faith’ to stumble if/when they follow your pattern of behavior. We must use our freedom in Christ in a way that builds others up in Jesus, making for peace in the church, not in a way that tears others down. For God calls us to demonstrate that the exercise of our freedom in Christ is not more important than the exercise of love for our brothers and sisters. This is the love that Jesus demonstrated for us (Philippians 2:6-8), so this is the love that we demonstrate to and for others. It is a sacrificial love-walk… willing to sacrifice.
