smoking, clubbing, tattooing, watching certain movies (M18)
To jus summarise it all in short, we as christians should avoid doing these things as mentioned in the bible that we can do ANYTHING, but not all is BENEFICIAL( 1Co 6:12 ). simply because these things may leave a bad testament to non-believers and secondly put us in a situation close to temptations.
1Co 6:12 All things are lawful for me; but not all things are expedient. All things are lawful for me; but I will not be brought under the power of any.
1Co 6:12 凡事我都可行，但不都有益处。凡事我都可行，但无论哪一件，我总不受他的辖制。
1) smoking: bad for health and waste $$.
2) clubbing: place where i'll be reallie close to temptations like social drinking, and maybe sexual as well (the bible tells us that we are not to get drunk [Matthew 24:49; Luke 21:34;Rom.13:13; Galatians 5:19; Ephesians 5:18; 1 Thessalonians 5:7] & i dun like drinkin anw) somemore paying $20plus to get in and then having music that will blast your ears...
3) tattooing( maybe includes piercing as well) : The Bible says we shouldn’t — Leviticus 19:28
“You shall not make any cuts in your body for the dead nor make any tattoo marks on yourselves: I am the Lord.”
4) M18 movies: pornography??!! -_-" I think guys we should stay away from it.. it do us no good anyway
hmm i guess all in all, in whatever we do, if we have a hard time convincing ourselves and God that its right, it probably isn't. Moreover, I do not think any of the above activities can let us as christians be a good testimony to non-believers and bring them to Christ... so yea! We should avoid them!!
okae nite ppl~until nex time
