Loving the Weak and Strong in Conscience

The Apostle Paul addresses some division that has taken root in the Roman church after the Jewish Christians were removed by the emperor and later returned. Paul gives three points of instruction to the reformed body of both Gentile and Jewish believers —particularly for those who understand and follow the Old Testament law— for how to handle the issues caused by the Gentiles who aren't obeying the Law.

1. They belong to their Master, not you. (v3)
2. Not only are they saved, but they are acting in faith. (v5-9)
3. They are saved by Christ and that's his decision, not yours. (v10-12)
