Rom 15:2 | MHM | STEP | v. 2 : Paul continues, Let each of us please his neighbor for his good, to build him up (Romans 15:2 ). We must not always try to please ourselves or do only what we want. Instead, we should think about what helps others, especially in their faith. This does not mean agreeing with sin or letting people do wrong, but helping people grow closer to God. The purpose is to strengthen and build up the whole church, like stones fitted together to make a strong building (Ephesians 2:21 ).
