It is part of our duty to think of these weaker ones and of the influence of our example upon them.

We may not do anything, in our strength and security, which might possibly harm others.

We must be willing to sacrifice our liberty, if by its exercise we endanger another's soul.

This is the teaching of St.Paul in the words: "It is good not to eat flesh, nor to drink wine, nor to do anything whereby thy brother stumbleth"; and "If meat maketh my brother to stumble, I will eat no flesh for evermore, that I make not my brother to stumble." How can we make sure of an influence that shall be only a benediction?
There is no way but by making our life pure and good.

Just in the measure in which we are filled with the Spirit of God and have the love of Christ in us, shall our influence be holy and a blessing to the world..
