Some Word Of Wisdom From A.W. Pink

Let every man be fully persuaded in his own mind" (Rom. 14:5) and not blindly swayed by the opinions or customs of others. Second, Be not censorious and condemn not those who differ from you (Rom.
14:13). Third, Be not occupied with mere trifles, but concentrate on the essentials (Rom. 14:17).
Fourth, Follow after those things which make for peace and mutual edification (Rom. 14:19) and
quibble not over matters which are to no profit. Fifth, Make not an ostentatious display of your liberty,
nor exercise the same to the injury of others (Rom. 14:19-21).

Variety and Diversity Among Saints
There is great variety and diversity among the saints. This is true of their natural makeup, temperament, manner, and thus in their likeableness or unlikeableness. This fact also holds good spiritually: Christians have received varying degrees of light, measures of grace, and different gifts. One reason why God has ordered things thus is to try their patience, give opportunity for the exercise of love, and provide occasion to display meekness and forbearance. All have their blemishes and infirmities. Some are proud, others peevish; some are censorious, and others backboneless, or in various ways difficult to get on with. Opinions differ and customs are by no means uniform. Much grace is needed if fellowship is to be maintained. If the rules above had been rightly interpreted and genuinely acted upon through the centuries, many dissensions would have been prevented, and much that has marred the Christian testimony in public would have been avoided. "We then that are strong ought to bear the infirmities of the weak, and not to please ourselves" (Rom. 15:1).
