For the most part, we are fat because we consume too many
calories. Call it gluttony; call it over-eating. It damages the
"temple of God." Why is this person "saved" and the confessing
"pervert" lost? tc: If a person is a glutton, sin is the pattern
of their life and they are lost, as is the pervert who refuses to deny
self . I do not know why. I just know that he is. I suppose
one reason would be that the Bible says so and the Bible is the word of
God. I would consider that a good enough reason that I would
not question it. Sins of omission will send us to hell, under your
gospel. How many minutes can I sit watching TV while not, at the same
time, preaching to the lost? If you are watching the stuff Lance
watches, not long. I collect 1:18 model cars. I just spent $250
on a 1955 Mercedes with something like 3600 individual parts -----
going to hell until I repent, take the car back and give the money to
the local church or a needy ministry or a needy person?
Had you seen a needy person on your way to buy that car,
would you have not spent the money on that person. Seems I remember
you doing something similar before.

As Terry said - all fat ppl are not
gluttons but if you are concerned or interested here's a Bible Study:
Gluttony & Drunkenness seem to go
together like siamese twins (as an attitude of the heart) and under the
Old
Covenant they they were cause for a
rebellious son who would not listen to be
stoned (Deuteronomy 21:20)
These two are also mentioned in tandem in
Proverbs 23:20
Isaiah 5:21,22
Luke 21:34,35
Romans 13:13,14
Ephesians 5:18,19
Is gluttony a sin?
