Is THIS a Sin?? ... Can it Ever Be?
I heard a bible teacher on the radio yesterday make a fairly convincing argument that anxiety can be a sin.
One of the reasons he gave was that it's rooted in unbelief ...
Not sure I entirely agree with his premise ... but thought I'd bring it up for discussion
What do you think? Is it? Can it ever be a sin?

Philippians 4:6 NIV •
Do not be anxious about anything, but in everything, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God.

Are you saying this is a command?

To me personally, it is a command. I refuse to worry, be anxious, to whine to allow myself to truly believe.

So do you repent when you do get anxious?
What if you have an anxiety disorder?

Re: Is THIS a Sin?? ... Can it Ever Be?
Is an anxiety disorder based on fear?

I don't know but I would say sin, unrepented sin, but be the cause of it
