Liberty Within Torah Obedience
14: 1-23
The contrast Paul makes is between the stronger and the weaker believer, who believes that there is some intrinsic sin in eating and drinking meat and wine. The question that is answered in Chapter 14 is, “What does Torah observance means in practical lifestyle?” Paul is not dealing with something that was forbidden by the Torah, nor ethically wrong, nor something that would jeopardize one’s testimony, rather, he was dealing with things that are amoral. Neither good nor bad, but could be used for both good or bad.
