On the flipside, you need to come to grips with this less-than-pleasant truth: other Christians are free to offend you. What you like or dont like isnt their problem. They may sip wine coolers. They may dance. They may disco dance. They may even play shuffleboard. Or poker. Or get the King of Hearts tattooed on their forearms while grooving to disco at a poker tournament. Your scowl of dissatisfaction sets you on the precipice of legalisms slippery slope. Who are you to judge anothers servant? Paul asks (Romans 14:4). So celebrate their tattoo, even if its not your thing. Let them be. And expect the same courtesy from them. Christs death shattered prison bars. The stupendous fact of redemption means you are nobodys slave. Never yield to tyranny – not to Satan, not to sin, not to legalism, and most certainly not to the tyranny of other peoples opinion. The Savior who redeemed you through his death on Calvarys hill meant it when he said, And you shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free (John 8:32). Fly, little bird. Be free. ~Grace Intervention, 31 days, 15 hours. Prayers appreciated.
