Christian freedom is a gift, but it was never meant to be used without regard for others. Drawing from 1 Corinthians 8, Paul challenges believers to move beyond simply knowing what they are allowed to do and to start asking what is genuinely good for the people around them. Knowledge without love leads to pride, while love that is rooted in the Gospel builds others up. Whether the topic is entertainment, politics, or how we talk about fellow believers from different traditions, the call is the same. Customize your love. Know people well enough to understand how your choices affect them, and be willing to limit your freedoms when love requires it.
