Romans 14:19 "Do not destroy the work of God for the sake of.... food". Substitute any personal preference/activity for food and it acts as a good reminder to to focus on seeking first the kingdom and his righteousness and all the other stuff of life will be added ---- verse 17 "For the kingdom of God is not a matter of eating and drinking, but of righteousness, peace and joy in the Holy Spirit",...
Our personal style of "worship" or spirit filled/led living,often becomes the point of division and derision that is one of the 6 things God (Proverbs 6:19), and we do it because we "love" God!
I John 2:9-10 has it right, we can assess how much we love God by our love for our family of faith. "Anyone who claims to be in the light but hates his brother is still in the darkness. Whoever loves his brother lives in the light, and there is nothing in him to make him stumble.
Romans 13:8
-
“[Love Fulfills the Law] Let no debt remain outstanding, except the
continuing debt to love one another, for whoever loves others has fulfilled
the law.”
