“Accept one another just as Christ accepted you in order to bring praise to God” (Romans 15:7).

Do you have a mind of acceptance or are there standards one must meet before deemed acceptable?
Should external appearances be considered before one is accepted? Are we like Jesus seeing only lost souls needing a Savior?
God accepted us as we are to be molded and shaped into His image. We would be people most miserable had He not sacrificed His life for the remission of sin.

Do we invite others to come as they are to receive nourishment from God’s Word?
Is our acceptance of sin sick people who seek truth being admitted into the spiritual hospital—the Body of Christ?
Where would we be if turned away from admission into the spiritual hospital (Matthew 9:12-13 and Luke 5:31-32)?

Your blog made me think of Romans 5:8, “But God demonstrates His own love toward us, in that while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us.”
