I just want to make sure we keep a distinction between the fact that I am not talking about whether or not someone thinks alcohol is a sin. I am talking about someone that is offended by alcohol (for various reasons). That person is classified as a weaker brother who doesn't understand Christian liberty. However, comments that flaunt Christian liberty also go against what Paul teaches in Romans 14 and I Corinthians 10. I am looking for the justification in this and I cannot find it.
