There should be no tolerance for any form of imposed legalistic standards based on the abritrary will of man or human opinion.

Not exactly the illustration of this point that I had in mind
I'm not advocating imposed legalistic standards -- that's my whole point. They aren't written on stony tablet, they are written, through the Spirit, on the fleshy tables of man's heart. The brother with peanut butter and banana (as silly as your example was) needs good teaching. I would ask WHY they were cut to the heart about eating PB&B sandwiches? That's the greater reason. Remember, the heart reveals the motive of the actions -- God cares about the heart!!
