From the Pulpit...

The Bible, inspired by God through the hand of the Apostle Paul, continues with the subject of "strong" and "weak" brothers. The focus of the instruction is toward the strong, how they ought to handle the scruples of others so as to build up the weak brother, rather than to please the strong-faithed brother himself. The pre-eminent example of bearing the burdens of others is Christ, who bore the insults of those who insulted God.
