“Disputable Matters” How to Handle Disagreements Over Disputable Matters

Definition of “Disputable matter” refers to a practice/activity that the Bible does not forbid, but that some Christians are nevertheless uncomfortable with Paul uses the term “weak” (v.1) to describe Christians who abstain from these disputed activities Paul does not use this term in a derogatory sense. He does not mean these people have “weak” faith in Christ. ‐ Instead, Paul uses “weak” because these believers lack the understanding/maturity to realize their freedom in Christ

What Examples Does Paul Give of “Disputable Matters”? Some refrain from meat and eat only vegetables (v.2) Some honor certain days above others (v.5) Some refrain from drinking wine (v.21) ‐

Modern examples of “disputable matters”?

Cultural Relativism Biblical Relativism Biblical Absolutism Cultural Absolutism Situational Ethics Traditionalist Cultural Relativism Antinomian Theologically, antinomianism is the belief that there are no moral laws God expects Christians to obey. Mutual Respect

How to Handle Disagreements Over Disputable Matters Accept One Another (v.1) “Welcome” the one you disagree with; don’t let this hinder fellowship And don’t welcome each other just “to quarrel over opinions” (v.1) Walk in love v15 15 For if your brother is grieved by what you eat, you are no longer walking in love.

How to Handle Disagreements Over Disputable Matters Do Not Judge/Despise One Another / Don’t Stumble The strong (who understand their freedom in Christ), are called not to despise (v.3, 10) This is a reference to looking down upon a person in a condescending way The weak (who abstain from certain practices), are called not to pass judgment (v.3, 10) This refers to how believers condemn another person on their own authority (as opposed to the Bible’s) ‐ The reason Paul opposes this is because we do not have the authority to do this: “Who are you to pass judgment on the servant of another? It is before his own master that he stands or falls” Don’t be a stumbling block (Do not, for the sake of food, destroy the work of God.)

When it Comes to Disputable Matters, Focus on Your Own Behavior Rather than Others Whether you participate or abstain from a behavior, do it “in honor of the Lord” (v.6) (22b) Whichever way you choose, remember “we will all stand before the judgment seat of God” (v.10) Whether you participate or abstain from a behavior, be convinced in your mind it is godly (v.5) In other words, if you are doubtful about a behavior, don’t do it! (v23)
