Philippians 3:19
Their end is destruction, their god is their belly, and they glory in their shame, with minds set on earthly things.
Proverbs 23:20-21
Be not among drunkards or among gluttonous eaters of meat, for the drunkard and the glutton will come to poverty, and slumber will clothe them with rags.
Proverbs 23:2And put a knife to your throat if you are given to appetite.
1 Corinthians 3:16-17
Do you not know that you are God's temple and that God's Spirit dwells in you? If anyone destroys God's temple, God will destroy him. For God's temple is holy, and you are that temple.
We know that everything in excess is bad for you. Smoking, drinking, and eating in excess will only damage your body. The next time I go out to an All-you-can-eat restaurant, or are tempted to eat over what I can take, I will refrain, and remember the consequences of eating too much.
Remember, your body is not yours but God's , and is the temple of the holy spirit... Let's take care of it like you would take care of something borrowed. Love your body, take care of it, and allow nothing to defile it!
