Bible Question:
Hello- My husband is a really great guy. I love him SO much! But I am getting really irritated becuase he plays this "World of Warcraft" game non-stop, like hours and hours a day. To me, it seems like a sin to be that obsessed, but he says that it's because his job is emotionally draining (which is true) and he needs to escape from reality. I know it's wrong to nag and bother him about it constantly, but I feel like he's sinning, but I don't know what biblical verses I can use to back this up. Am I wrong? What would you do? I want to help him, but maybe I am doing more harm by judging him? Help! |
Bible Answer: Hi!I agree with you that he is sinning and if he would read the Bible alone with all that he would feel so Greater filled...nothing in this old world is going to take the place of a good reading about God and what he can do for us...I myself don't like to read but I get one of Charles Stanley Booklet and its so up Beat in the scripture that I can't wait to get back to it...I have been careing a burden and it has help me...and I think if your husband would get in the word he would get grater help...don't nag...tell him that God is not in that game...Pray for him also...Hope you can help him... |
