It is quite interesting that, in our modern 'in Church' styles our behaviour can often cause other people to fall down in a sinful way or even fall asleep. The Word of God in both Old and New Testaments is very clear to understand if we sincerely read it and study it. We should not cause other people to fall or be offended.
