And hello, radio friends. How in the world are you? Are you doing all right? Hope everything is okay at your house. It’s nice to be back with you to share once again from the Word of God. We paused a while on Romans 14:1 talking about what Paul really meant when he used the expression “weak in the faith,” and also when he used the verb “receive.” “Receive the person who is weak in the faith.” What does it mean to receive a person? Notice him, consider him a person of real value, eternal value, recognize and give respect to the points at which he differs from you in any matter, listen to him and refer your position and his to the Word of God.

Now, he says, “Him that is weak in the faith receive ye, but not to doubtful disputations.” Doubtful disputations. The word “doubtful” actually means judging, comes from a verb diakrino which means “to judge,” not judging him. And the word “disputation” has the idea of inward thoughts. Well, now, that puts a different cast on it, doesn’t it? Because you don’t really know why a person feels the way he or she does about any given matter. Now, in our family, we like dogs. We’ve had a pet dog, I guess, ever since we were married. And so, you know, it’s just natural for me to refer affectionately to man’s four-footed flea-bearing dirt-bringing loud-mouth best friend, you know.

Somebody else, however, shrinks in fear at the very sight of this gentle mannered Doberman that we have presently at our house. You know, it wouldn’t possibly bite anything or anybody but here is a person that just shrinks in fear. Now, why? Well, it develops that this person was bitten on one occasion by somebody’s dog and that left a lasting impression. You may be sure not only on the place in the body that was bitten but in the mind of the person. Now, it does me no good to argue with that person and say, “You shouldn’t be afraid. Oh, look how gentle this Rusty is, our four-footed loud-mouthed dog here.” Why? Because there’s an inner reason why the person feels the way he does.
