Since I'm a guy, I guess it would be easier for me to relate to some guy examples! Here's a few examples of them:
- Touching a girl everywhere intentionally (Definitely a no no unless she's your wife)
- Staring at girls who wear skimpy clothes (But it's just staring! Well, lust and sinful desires will linger around you so you better forget it)
- Taking something which is not yours (People are always observing, looking and noticing everything you do, even you stealing will cause them to stumble)
- Hang out with only cool people (What about the uncool people? They will feel as if they are not accepted at all, hence their faith will stumble!)
From the Bible, the book of Romans 14:15 says, "If your brother is distressed because of what you eat, you are no longer acting in love. Do not by your eating destroy your brother for whom Christ died."
Now this verse is serious about you giving up habits that causes people to stumble! You must practice and learn to think for other people too rather than yourself only! Remember, there are people who looks up to you =)
In conclusion, I just want to remind all of us to think twice and reconsider our actions before doing them, because we never know if those actions might lead people further away from God! =)
