Today: [Romans 14:] Allowances and Concessions in God: In chapter 14 of Romans Paul addresses very personal issues such as diet and holy days. Believers in his time were condemning one another to hell because they ate meat or worshipped on a wrong day. Things have changed little in our own day as the existence of the Christian denominational system attests. Paul gives us his judgment in pointing out allowances we may feel free to live out in our private lives and concessions we must make in our public testimony.
