But be careful that your freedom does not cause those who are weak in faith to fall into sin. Suppose one of you who has knowledge eats in an idol’s temple. Someone who is weak in faith might see you eating there and be encouraged to eat meat sacrificed to idols while thinking it is wrong to do so. This weak believer for whom Christ died is ruined because of your “knowledge.” When you sin against your brothers and sisters in Christ like this and cause them to do what they feel is wrong, you are also sinning against Christ. So if the food I eat causes them to fall into sin, I will never eat meat again so that I will not cause any of them to sin.

Christian leadership is radically different from any other form of leadership. With the church and community crying out for good leaders, this plan is the first of seven foundations for Christian leaders who are called by God to have a powerful godly influence. There is a lot of work involved in these plans, but it will be worth it. And God’s grace is where it all starts!
Beliefs Part 1 is the ninth in a series of Plans that helps you establish a strong biblical foundation as a follower of Jesus. Most new Christians are not looking for a sugar-coated version of the Bible. They’re looking for truth. In this Plan, we consider some foundational Christian beliefs and explore how to respond when you find your beliefs differ from the beliefs of other Christians.
