“So then, each of us will give an account of ourselves to God”. We all need to live in the light of this. When societies or individuals stop doing this evil prospers. We see this happening in the West, where few pay attention to God, and even fewer leaders. If we bear in mind that one day we will have to give an account to God of what we have done, then that will spare us from many evils.
14:13
So we are to stop passing judgement on one another. Instead of doing this we are to ensure that we avoid putting stumbling blocks in each other’s way. We are meant to help one another along the road, not try to trip each other up. For if we persuade someone to do something against their conscience then we make it much more difficult for them to be at peace. And if we condemn someone for doing something that God has not spoken against we pile unwarranted guilt upon them. Neither of these is good.
