Believers are to show radical love for others by lying down any and all rights if they cause someone to stumble.
When to say NO to a Christian freedom?
1. Does Scripture clearly call it sin?

2. Will the use of this liberty enslave me?

3. Does my conscience forbid me?

4. Does it make me glory in God?

5. How will this affect my brothers and sisters?
