One, we have the bible that is very firm about what God wants from us. Our example in this thread is referring to Job 31:1.
Adam Clarke said this: I am therefore bound not to look upon any thing with a delighted or covetous eye, by which my conscience may be defiled, or my God dishonored.
Are we allowing society to shape us in some ways that we think we are too rigid and we need to loosen up a little? Society and the Bible look at things from totally opposite viewpoints, IMO.
Any thoughts? |
I know that statement is out of context, but really - - God wants us to be delighted at the things he's made (not particularly talking about men either) - - so I think it's more about ANYthing that would defile or dishonor God. Looking upon something and delighting isn't doing that.
