7 Therefore receive one another, just as Christ also received us, to the glory of God. 8 Now I say that Jesus Christ has become a servant to the circumcision for the truth of God, to confirm the promises made to the fathers, 9 and that the Gentiles might glorify God for His mercy, as it is written: “For this reason I will confess to You among the Gentiles, And sing to Your name.” 10 And again he says: “Rejoice, O Gentiles, with His people!” 11 And again: “Praise the Lord, all you Gentiles! Laud Him, all you peoples!” 12 And again, Isaiah says: “There shall be a root of Jesse; And He who shall rise to reign over the Gentiles, In Him the Gentiles shall hope.” 13 Now may the God of hope fill you with all joy and peace in believing, that you may abound in hope by the power of the Holy Spirit. (Romans 15:7-13) The church must not be a place of rejection or segregation but of acceptance and love. Unfortunately, this does not happen automatically. People who become followers of Christ through faith in Him must be reminded that they are not simply saved individually for their own individual comfort. They are saved to form a community of faith that is inclusive for all kinds of people. Forming such communities of acceptance and love must be our priority as we follow Christ in this world. #churchonline #digical #rlccphil Choose your place of grace - https://solo.to/rlccphil Discuss this in your small group - https://rlcc.ph/devotional/ Ask for prayer- https://m.me/rlccphil Send your giving - https://join.rlcc.ph/giving Take the next step - https://bit.ly/3mJy44F Main Idea: “We must accept one another because of Christ.” (“Dapat tanggapin natin ang isa't isa dahil kay Cristo.”) Why should we accept one another?

Overcoming Anxiety | By Pastor Bong Baylon | RLCC (A psalm of David. When he fled from his son Absalom.) 1 Lord, how many are my foes! How many rise up against me! 2 Many are saying of me, “God will not deliver him.” 3 But you, Lord, are a shield around me, my glory, the One who lifts my head high. 4 I call out to the Lord, and he answers me from his holy mountain. 5 I lie down and sleep; I wake again, because the Lord sustains me. 6 I will not fear though tens of thousands assail me on every side. 7 Arise, Lord! Deliver me, my God! Strike all my enemies on the jaw; break the teeth of the wicked. 8 From the Lord comes deliverance. May your blessing be on your people. (Psalm 3:1-8) There are many things that can trigger anxiety in our hearts. We may feel overwhelmed as we think about the many problems that we face in our lives. So we worry and stay awake all night. How we long for peace in the midst of our anxious thoughts! But the solution can only be found in God's presence. We must choose to trust in Him by presenting our situation to God in prayer instead of being anxious. #churchonline #digical #rlccphil Choose your place of grace - https://solo.to/rlccphil Discuss this in your small group - https://rlcc.ph/devotional/ Ask for prayer- https://m.me/rlccphil Send your giving - https://join.rlcc.ph/giving Take the next step - https://bit.ly/3mJy44F Download our free app - https://app.rlcc.ph Have questions? - https://join.rlcc.ph/support ... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Y8TxOx3nBdo

We will miss the blessing of being His apprentices in this world. Our opportunities to glorify Him will be wasted because our lives will not be centered on Jesus. In other words, we will gain the whole world but forfeit our souls. Hosted on Acast. See https://acast.com/privacy for more information. ... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BfreUSB9jbM
