Bible Question: What is permissible for Christians?Some cannot watch TV unless it's totally Christian.Some can't play board games and recently,one said swimming is not permissible?How do we determine what we can or cannot do as Christians,if we want to be in the perfect will of God? |
Bible Answer: "Everything is permissible..." AMPLIFIED 1 Corinthians 6:12 Everything is permissible (allowable and lawful) for me; but not all things are helpful (good for me to do, expedient and profitable when considered with other things). Everything is lawful for me, but I will not become the slave of anything or be brought under its power. AMPLIFIED 1 Corinthians 10:23 All things are legitimate [permissible--and we are free to do anything we please], but not all things are helpful (expedient, profitable, and wholesome). All things are legitimate, but not all things are constructive [to character] and edifying [to spiritual life]. ************* NLT 1 Cor 6:12 You may say, "I am allowed to do anything." But I reply, "Not everything is good for you." And even though "I am allowed to do anything," I must not become a slave to anything. NLT 1 Cor 10:23 You say, "I am allowed to do anything" – but not everything is helpful. You say, "I am allowed to do anything" – but not everything is beneficial. |
