I encourage you all to listen to these sermons on Romans 14.
I wish I had understood the message of Romans 14 a long time ago. It speaks to how we relate to others who have differing positions on nonessential issues. The passage says that how we treat others is vitally important, but which position we have on nonessential issues is not as vitally important. (The text clearly says it is viatl for us to welcome one another, irrespective of position, rather than charging us to have the correct position.)
Piper does a great job in this series and the first couple sermons really present an overview of the whole chapter that is priceless.
