One Another #4 - Devoted to One Another

Church can place people beside each other who would never naturally become friends. Romans 12 describes them as family, devoted enough to meet practical needs, speak against evil, celebrate another's joy and weep in grief. This love costs emotional energy, yet serving one another is service to the Lord and part of how God changes His people. Jesus paid for the failures of His people to love, and His blood now unites them as one spiritual family. Bible References: Romans 12:1–2, 9–21 Preacher: Tony Van Drimmelen
