What is considered sinful? What can Christians do and what should they avoid?
"Is it okay for a Christian to drink? And should every Christian tithe? And what about tattoos? Christians have disagreed for centuries about what's holy for a person and what dishonors God. There's this fascinating conversation that happens right at the beginning of the church in Acts chapter 15 on what was going to be holy and unholy for Christians, and they called an international council about what were the things that would align them. And there was so much conflict and the church was able to finally boil it down to there were only going to be four things that apply to all Christians. And it was their sexual morality and three practices of pagan worship. But there was to be no other physical thing that was enforced on all believers as a sign of their faith. The church had to determine that they would align in their belief in Christ and not necessarily align in every lifestyle choice. While the church is diverse and we all bring different perspectives. The church can still be diverse without being divisive."
