My Rights vs Stumbling Blocks

Monday, February 11, 2008

"I've got my rights!" "Why should his conscience dictate my behavior?" "Didn't Christ call us to be free?" The strong believer stands on solid ground. Jesus did declare all foods clean; thus destroying the legalistic system of the religious rigorists of His day who tried to conquer evil on the inside with rules on the outside. Does all this freedom mean that grace causes us to forget about the conscience issues of a more delicate believer? In a culture that worships personal rights does Christ call us to be willing to sacrifice our freedom for the sake of another? Romans 14:12ff gives us not my answer but the Apostle Paul's strong advice to arrogant believers who think they only have to worry about themselves.

This message references: Romans 14:13

About Truth Encounter

Truth Encounter seeks to help you hear the voice of Jesus Christ and get close to Him through the teaching of the Bible. Dave Wyrtzen will help you understand how Jesus Christ can transform your life not just on Sunday morning, but in the reality of your Monday through Saturday life.

About Dave Wyrtzen

Above everything else Dave Wyrtzen is a pastor-teacher. In 1973 he sat together with about sixteen others in a small town thirty miles southwest of Dallas. These sixteen wanted someone to simply open up the pages of Scripture on a Sunday morning, help them to hear the truth, and then train them on how to live it in the marketplace. Dave is still their pastor-teacher and Midlothian Bible Church has grown into a mature church.The Spirit of God has used this church family to generate several other churches in the southwest section of Dallas.

He received both his Th M and Th D from Dallas Seminary and is an adjunct faculty member for the Seminary. Dave speaks regularly for Bible Conferences and in many foreign countries. Dave's greatest joy is his wife, Mary, their eight children (counting spouses) and eight grandkids. His life goal is to communicate God's truth through the power of the Spirit in practical, and skillful ways. Since 1973 Dave has faithfully pastored in Midlothian and through Truth Encounter we invite you to join us for his unique depth, passion, and practicality. This Bible teaching is rooted in solid study but lives in the office, classroom, and ball field.
