In Rom.14 we see Paul telling Jewish believers at Rome that in their new faith they have the freedom to eat whatever they want to eat. And that they are not to judge one another because one eats anything he wants and another eats only herbs.
But, what we who were never taught about clean and unclean foods can glean from this is the fact that doctrine is either clean or unclean. So that we are careful what doctrine we eat and what doctrine is not good for our spiritual nourishment.
In this message I go straight to the foundational doctrines that affect our beliefs about who God is, who Jesus is, and what the atonement is for. The doctrines of original sin and sin nature that have been a plague on the Christian religion since they were codified to Roman Catholicism when it adopted Augustine of Hippo as her doctor of theology.
And what is most important to know for anyone who has not yet come to a saving faith in Jesus is that God does not impute your trespasses to you(2Cor.5:19). He is not angry at you for any bad things you may have done.
This being said, it is important for you to know that Jesus came so that you could have life abundantly(John10:10). And that this life is eternal. The way to have this life is to confess with your mouth the Lord Jesus. And believe in your heart that He has raised from the dead.
This is the mechanics at work for you to be born again. To be made a child of God and heir to His kingdom. Because this is how you will have a spirit created in you that never existed before. A spirit that is eternal life. A spirit that ensures you receive an immortal body at the resurrection.
Do this and you will have eternal life. Do this and you will be a child of God and heir to His kingdom. Do this… and I will see you there or in the air!
