Romans 15:5-6
5 May the God who gives endurance and encouragement give you the same attitude of mind toward each other that Christ Jesus had, 6 so that with one mind and one voice you may glorify the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ.
No one should be required to look, dress, or sound a certain way to enter church doors! No one should be offended by anyone who does walk in those doors! Yes, I put exclamation marks at the end of those two statements because I am VERY passionate about them. God called everyone through those doors, including you. Who are we to tell someone they are not welcome when they first walk in by giving “that look”, gasping, or even whispering to the person sitting next to us. I hope you have never experienced this in your church and I sure hope you have never participated. However, my intent is not to shame you, but to open your eyes.
Romans 15:7, “Accept one another, then, just as Christ accepted you, in order to bring praise to God.” God once accepted you right where you stood, filthy sin and all. You have been commanded by Him to do the same for everyone that walks in the door. You love on them just like God loved on you. Now is the time for us to glorify God the Father of our Lord, Jesus Christ. Come now is the time for us to all worship God together.
Come, now is the time to worship
Come, now is the time to give your heart
Come, just as you are to worship
Come, just as you are before your God
Lord, I want to come together because now is the time to worship you just as we are! ~amen
