Discussion Questions:
1. What are some examples of tertiary issues in the church?
What issues might Paul address if he wrote this chapter
(Romans 14) to the American church today?
2. What do you think about the statement “Speak where the
Bible speaks; be silent where the Bible is silent”?
3. How does our background affect our conscience when it
comes to a believer’s discretionary behavior?
4. Romans 14:5b tells us that “each one should be fully
convinced in his own mind.” What are some convictions you
hold that may not apply to someone else?
5. Romans 14:10 & 12 tells us that we will all stand before the
judgement seat of God and give an account of ourselves to
God. What are we going to account for?
