Romans 15:7 ~
"Therefore receive one another just as Christ also received us, to the glory of God."
"Receive." Such a unique way of putting things, but what would that really look like?
That's a little "much" for me...
Couldn't do the beard...
REALLY creepy...
The Amplified Bible says, "welcome into your hearts." Bad enough I should "treat" others as Christ treats them -- as Christ treats me (see Fruits of the Spirit, for instance). You can treat someone well, and roll out; you can bite your lip through your entire service to them. But to truly welcome someone into your heart is a full-time venture, a real experience, a heart transplant -- mine to Christ's.
