How much do I love my brother?

Enough that I won’t allow my liberty to become a source of stumbling to him?

Enough that I won’t allow my knowledge to cause him to perish (Romans 8:11)?

Enough that I won’t knowingly wound his weak conscience (Romans 8:12)?

Enough that I won’t make him to offend (Romans 8:13)?

Do I love my brother that much?

Theoretically, yes.

In practice, I don’t know.

I know this — I want to love my brother as much as I profess to love Christ.

“But take heed lest by any means this liberty of yours become a stumblingblock to them that are weak” (1 Corinthians 8:9).

So I will be careful.

One thought on “Be Careful!

Surely you could add something...
