1 | what does it mean to fast | Bible general Archive 2 | Hank | 137426 | ||
xmikx - If you deem srbaegon's answer only partially correct and your expanded version correct, may we have scriptural support for this? If fasting means going without '__________' (fill in the blank), is going naked, i.e., without clothing, "fasting"? :-) --Hank | ||||||
2 | what does it mean to fast | Bible general Archive 2 | xmikx | 137430 | ||
Hank, Perhaps a poor choice on my part. Allow me to try a do over... srbaegon's answer is correct. But fasting does not have to be limited to going without food and/or drink only. Fasting is usually associated as a means to obtain insight from God about a particular problem, concern or situation. We usually fast (and pray) when we are facing a rather difficult situation that requires God's input. One can fast from TV, radio, sex or other things so that the "time spent" doing these activities can be utilized and better spent focusing on a conversation with God to obtain the information we seek. I apologize for my poor choice of words. Mike |
