Session 4: Lifestyle: “I refuse to give up my rights”
1 Cor 8-10
Rev Dr Lim Kar Yong
In 1 Corinthians 8-10, Paul focusses on the ethics of love and the stumbling block principle in exercising our freedom in Christ to ensure that we do not stumble our weaker brothers and sisters. What are some of the possible freedom we have in Christ or our actions that could be a stumbling block to others? Is there an experience where your actions that may be neutral to you have stumbled someone?
How should “a strong brother/sister” demonstrate love toward “a weaker brother/sister” in the church today by giving up his/her right to freedom? Share some practical examples and concrete steps.
