1 | Is habitualy working out acceptable? | Gal 5:13 | DavidHamilton7 | 112719 | ||
I thoroughly enjoy working out, i do it when i can, i'd say maybe 3-4 days a week max 2.5 hours. Plus i get to play pick up basketball with others which I also thoroughly enjoy. The reason I ask this question is because i feel like my conscience is telling me I'm loving something else other than the Lord. But my thoughts to that are that I might be going too far with questioning my motives. It seems as though everything that i begin to enjoy on this earth, things other than praying, reading the bible, and going to church, brings that same sense of guilt. I think about all this and I reason within myself that this is not of God, but I continue to have it though I continue to fight it. It's either the devil trying to make me miserable, or on the other hand its the Lord letting me know something...whats your opinion? | ||||||
2 | Is habitualy working out acceptable? | Gal 5:13 | tortoise | 112728 | ||
I do 3 cardios and 2-3 weight workouts a week and I enjoy the weight workouts, but the cardio I figure is good for me so I do it anyway. I can get into a macho thing and I have to back off. For me it becomes sin at that point. I really have to watch that. 1 Tim 6:17 says God has given us all things to enjoy. I can't see anything wrong with it. How does it detract from your worship of God? Two and one half hours a week isn't what I would call an addiction. Most people weight train 3 times a week unless they are doing different muscle groups on different days. Isn't that just basic maintanence, good health, and taking care of the vessel that God gave you? I think so. You should also do a cardio 3 times a week, that is just good health. I workout at home so it works best for me to do them on different days; it is easier to find 45 minutes than one and one half hours a day. | ||||||
