We have all heard sermons and teachings about unity within the Body of Christ. Unity is essential to God being glorified from the interactive life of a body of believers. But do we have to agree about everything? What about our personal opinions on issues? The Bible doesn’t speak precisely on every single matter about which Christians must develop a position or opinion. Are we ever free to disagree? The answer is YES. Christians can and do disagree about many issues concerning which the Bible does not offer a clear position. We are permitted to disagree, but how we treat those with whom we disagree is crucial. It is possible for us to have the right answers but an entirely wrong spirit towards those whom we consider to be wrong on the matter. The Apostle Paul’s words in Romans 14:1-13 give powerful instruction about how to handle our differences of opinions with other believers.
