Him (
note :)
Now he shows how we ought to behave ourselves toward our brethren in matters and things indifferent ,
who offend in the use of them not from malice or damnable superstition ,
but for lack of knowledge of the benefit of Christ .
And thus he teaches that they are to be instructed gently and patiently ,
and so that we apply ourselves to their ignorance in such matters according to the rule of charity .(:
note )
that is weak in the faith Do not for a matter or thing which is indifferent ,
and such a thing as you may do or not do ,
shun his company ,
but take him to you .

note :)
It is the part of a cruel mind to make more account of meat than of our brother '
s salvation .
Which thing those do who eat with the intent of giving offence to any brother ,
and so give him occasion to turn back from the Gospel .(:
note )
Destroy not him with thy meat ,

s example :
and Christ was so far from destroying the weak with meat that he gave his life for them .
