Pray For the Peace of Jerusalem

Character Studies From The Bible

Paul

(Paul's First Letter to The Corinthians)

23  "I have the right to do anything," you say-but not everything is beneficial. "I have the right to do anything"-but not everything is constructive. 24 No one should seek their own good, but the good of others.

25 Eat anything sold in the meat market without raising questions of conscience, 26 for, "The earth is the Lord's, and everything in it."

27 If an unbeliever invites you to a meal and you want to go, eat whatever is put before you without raising questions of conscience. 28 But if someone says to you, "This has been offered in sacrifice," then do not eat it, both for the sake of the one who told you and for the sake of conscience. 29 I am referring to the other person's conscience, not yours. For why is my freedom being judged by another's conscience? 30 If I take part in the meal with thankfulness, why am I denounced because of something I thank God for?

31 So whether you eat or drink or whatever you do, do it all for the glory of God. 32 Do not cause anyone to stumble, whether Jews, Greeks or the church of God- 33 even as I try to please everyone in every way. For I am not seeking my own good but the good of many, so that they may be saved.

(1 Corinthians 10)

Paul's admonitions are not supposed to bind the new Christians under a set of prohibitions. In fact, Paul says that "All things are lawful". But that doesn't mean that all things are helpful! In this instance he is speaking of meat that has been sacrificed to idols, but in our own day it could be anything...alcoholic beverages, smoking, delicious pastries served in the presence of a diabetic, or whatever. Why would I want to do anything that would cause another person to have to struggle with their conscience, even if it is OK for me?

This consideration for others is NOT the same as legalism or even today's hideous practice of suppressing others with new rules of "Political Correctness." Paul is, instead, proclaiming the freedom to make our own decisions, but to be motivated by kindness.

How such a reasonable policy could be twisted into legalism is a real stretch!

Come and Pray For the Peace of Jerusalem, For Our FRiends in Need, For Persecuted Believers, and For Our Beloved Nation.

[Hiskid]

Numbers 6: 23 Speak to Aaron and his sons, saying, This is the way you shall bless the Israelites. Say to them: The Lord bless you, and keep you [protect you, sustain you, and guard you]; The Lord make His face shine upon you [with favor], And be gracious to you [surrounding you with lovingkindness];The Lord lift up His countenance (face) upon you [with divine approval],And give you peace [a tranquil heart and life]. 27 So Aaron and his sons shall put My name upon the children of Israel, and I will bless them.

And this we do and proclaim and agree in Jesus name. Amen.

Good lesson to consider others.
