God Does Not Want to Lose Us Due to Our Improper Diet ㅡ

 “Whether therefore ye eat, or drink, or whatsoever ye do, do all to the glory of God.” (1 Corinthians 10:31).

With an eye single to the glory of God, we should give careful, thoughtful attention to the matter of our eating and drinking.

We need divine guidance, even in our commonest habits of everyday life, that there may be no little leaks which will consume means unnecessarily, simply for the gratification of perverted appetites.

In the New Testament not one of God′s requirements loses its binding force, or relaxes in the least its obligation to be fulfilled....

Instead of the requirements of God being relaxed in the New Testament, the lines are drawn closer, and duty is more distinctly defined.

The apostle says, “Whatsoever ye do,” even in the matter of eating and drinking, “do all to the glory of God.”

The question may be asked, “May I not do what I like with myself?

Am I never to have my own way?

Is not my body my own?” You may have your own way, but it will be at the loss of your soul, or you may have God′s way and live to a purpose in this world, and in the world to come have life everlasting.

Do not misuse or abuse any portion of your God-given powers, physical, mental, or moral.

All your habits are to be brought under the control of a mind that is itself under the control of God.
