Eat with the Gentiles even though your Jewish brothers are offended by it.
Can't we then say,
Preach on TV even if some of your brethren are offended by it?
Wear modest and comfortable clothing even though your brothers are offended by your shins? |
If the weaker brothers are the meat eaters, how do we reconcile everything with
1 Cor 8??
And if we are saying that it is the Old Testament Law that Paul is dealing with that causes one to be weaker, how can we apply that to standards, and not apply the principle of not offending the weaker brother?
