Theo
 * 1) There are some issues where Christians disagree and we should tolerate each other.
 * 2) Theoretically all behaviors are allowed, sin is more of the intention. However most sins have no situation where they could be committed with the right intention.
 * 3) Restrict your own liberty for the sake of disagreeing believers and to evang nonbelievers

Support for 1)
 * Romans 14:1-12

Support for 2)

Everything is permissible But hold up
 * "Everything is permissible" 1 Cor 6:12, 10:23
 * The law as a guide mostly, Gal 3:15-29. A guardian. Law cannot give life.
 * 1 Cor 8:4 no such thing as an idol
 * Mark 7:19 things go in not defiled, declare all foods clean
 * 1 Tim 4:3-5 "They forbid people to marry and order them to abstain from certain foods, which God created to be received with thanksgiving by those who believe and who know the truth. For everything God created is good, and nothing is to be rejected if it is received with thanksgiving, because it is consecrated by the word of God and prayer." - possibly only applies to food? but also sex/marriage I guess. Wider application?
