I am so thankful that human nature has not changed over the last 2,000 years. I know that I would be lost if the Roman believers did not struggle like I do. In chapter 14 Paul tells the believers not to impose their personal convictions on other believers. What I find unacceptable, when the Bible says nothing about it, another believer will accept readily. This has been one of the most difficult lessons for me to grasp. And I'm not sure that I yet fully understand it still. So I need God's firm yet gentle reminders to keep growing in this area of my life. Just like those first century believers in Rome.
