Also, often "prayer circles" are just the cover for major judgement and gossip breading ground! ;oP Thank you for your comment...

Separation from God's way and Will is just as much a problem if from lying as from dealing drugs. Thank you SO much for your comment and thoughts! Where do you draw the belief that all sins are equal? Is there a Bible verse that seems to indicate that?Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00990762259006899558noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6177051248746809707.post-17502750192931306292013-05-29T17:11:15.584-07:002013-05-29T17:11:15.584-07:00I was hesitant to write this as I didn't want ...I was hesitant to write this as I didn't want to come across like I was actually judging those who struggle with their weight... I think it helps that I have struggled with overeating most of my life, but it is still such a sensitive topic. I just detest hypocrisy, even in myself and this blog post was mostly motivated by that. I miss your blog... are you still doing it??Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00990762259006899558noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6177051248746809707.post-62435798319536220372013-05-07T05:18:25.532-07:002013-05-07T05:18:25.532-07:00Well said!

Yet there were TWO items not on our list: gluttony and gossip.

If you do wrong, it is wrong. If you do right, it is right. I had his discussion one time with my moms bible study group and they really couldn't grasp the idea that sins were not ranked. They felt that there had to be a difference between someone who committed murder and someone who told a lie. Clearly telling a lie is socially acceptable in society whereas murder is not. But to God both of these are sinful things. <br /><br />Great topicoperationhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18277166342229359513noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6177051248746809707.post-77753757951033432902013-05-06T11:11:41.312-07:002013-05-06T11:11:41.312-07:00I've often thought of this "sin" mys...I've often thought of this "sin" myself. I used to go to a Bible study group where one of the members ate two servings of dinner and then double dessert. He was one of the ones who told me I needed to repent and stop being a lesbian. In my head I was saying , "you need to stop eating so much because gluttony is a sin too". I didn't say anything though. I didn't want to hurt his feelings or seem judgemental. I just left it between him and God.<br /> <br />Well said and the title is great....my big fat acceptable sin...funny!!!!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01270056593078509268noreply@blogger.com
