Romans 15:1-7
\nThe Example of Christ<\/b><\/span><\/p>\n

Today, 04\/11\/2023, let us, together in the grace of God, rejoice and reflect on the Word of God in Romans 15:1-7.<\/span><\/p>\n

1 But we, the strong ones, ought to bear the weaknesses of those not strong, and not to please ourselves. <\/i><\/span><\/p>\n

2 For let each one of us please his neighbor for good, to building up. <\/i><\/span><\/p>\n

3 For also Christ did not please Himself, but even as it has been written, “The curses of those cursing You fell on Me.” LXX-Psa. 68:10; MT-Psa. 69:9 <\/i><\/span><\/p>\n

4 For whatever things were written before were written for our instruction, that through patience and encouragement of the Scriptures we might have hope. <\/i><\/span><\/p>\n

5 And may the God of patience and encouragement give to you to mind the same thing among one another according to Christ Jesus, <\/i><\/span><\/p>\n

6 that with one accord and with one mouth you may glorify the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ. <\/i><\/span><\/p>\n

7 Because of this, receive one another as Christ also received us, to the glory of God. <\/i><\/span><\/p>\n

[Literal Translation of the Holy Bible]<\/span><\/p>\n
