Lesson: Dealing with those that are Different

There are 3 different positions I can take towards questionable items and those that are different: Liscense, Legalism, or Love. What is the definition of each one of these positions?

I believe there are so many poeple within the church who struggle with people who are different than they are. Many times this causes divsion, and ultimatley bitterness, and even spawns hate. What is God's plan when it comes to these issues?

Other passages for reading: Hebrews 12:1; 1 Corinthians 6:12; 1 John 2:6; 1 Timothy 4:12; Colossians 4:5; 1 Corinthians 10:23; 1 Corinthians 10:21

How do you respond to people who have different preferences than you do?
Do you get angry?
Do you feel more or less spiritual in light of their decision?

I am praying for a revival of Christians, who have a Godly DISPOSITION, who keep the main the thing the main thing!

Lesson: Christian Liberty - The debate about the debate

Welll. This week we will be talking about debatable items. Those areas that are not quite black or white. The debatable items.

What are some debatable items?
How should our response be to those who are different than us on them?
Is there room within the church for people who have differences?
How should we treat those who don't fit into the cookie cutter?
Should we teach and preach our opinion regarding them?
What is the authority on these items?

I hope you will be here as we let the Bible answer all of these questions! I love you and am praying for you! See you Sunday!
