NASB | Romans 14:21 It is good not to eat meat or to drink wine, or to do anything by which your brother stumbles. |
AMPLIFIED 2015 | Romans 14:21 It is good [to do the right thing and] not eat meat or drink wine, or do anything that offends your brother and weakens him spiritually. |
Bible Question: What does "anything" in verse include? Christians "weak in the faith" do not have the freedom of mature Christians. How far should a strong Christian go in doubtful areas to prevent a weaker Christian from stumbling. As examples, should women not wear pants to church or lipstick or be leaders in the church if this causes someone to stumble. As I write this I have thought of a second question. What does stumble mean and how could a women wearing lipstick or pants to church cause someone to stumble? |
Bible Answer: Who is the weaker brother? 'In verse 1 of [Romans] chapter 15: “We then that are strong ought to bear the infirmities of the weak.” In other words, you know, even if you have the liberty to do some things, don’t do them… Just take care of the weaker brother. You know who the weaker brother is? Not a new Christian; a legalist. A legalist.'
