Accept one another as Christ accepted us


Accept one another as Christ accepted us

Rom 15:7

Accept one another, then, just as Christ accepted you, in order to bring praise to God.

Rom 8:17

17 Now if we are children, then we are heirs—heirs of God and co-heirs with Christ, if indeed we share in his sufferings in order that we may also share in his glory.

Gal 3:26-29

26 So in Christ Jesus you are all children of God through faith, 27 for all of you who were baptized into Christ have clothed yourselves with Christ. 28 There is neither Jew nor Gentile, neither slave nor free, nor is there male and female, for you are all one in Christ Jesus. 29 If you belong to Christ, then you are Abraham’s seed, and heirs according to the promise.

Col 3:10-14

 Do not lie to each other, since you have taken off your old self with its practices 10 and have put on the new self, which is being renewed in knowledge in the image of its Creator.

We learn the following from the above verses

1)  Accept one another as Christ accepted us

2)  Now if we are children, then we are heirs—heirs of God and co-heirs with Christ. – we should accept one another as children of God

3)  If you belong to Christ, then you are Abraham’s seed, and heirs according to the promise.

4)  We have to put on the new self, which is being renewed in knowledge in the image of its Creator
