To the Scrupulous: Romans 14:23 Doesn’t Mean What You Think It Means

Journal of Biblical Counseling 39:3

Emlet draws from many years of counseling experience to clarify a Scripture passage that is often misunderstood by people struggling with scrupulosity. He begins with careful exegesis of the passage (because we need to understand it too) and then illustrates how to discuss its meaning in a sample dialogue with a counselee. This article will help you know how to approach this verse and similar passages of Scripture that a scrupulous counselee might bring up.
