GLUTTONY<\/h4>\n

Definition:<\/h4>\n

A glutton is a person who eats and drinks excessively or voraciously. It can also speak of a person who has a remarkable desire or capacity for something, like a glutton for work.<\/h4>\n

Brief Explanation:<\/h4>\n

Gluttony is not the same as a weight problem. Being overweight is a problem, a health problem especially in Western culture, but Gluttony is different. It is out of control eating or drinking, usually driven by greed, lust or deep emotional \u201chunger.\u201d A glutton is out of control, and the issue again is not weight, but gaining control of the desire to continue to eat for secondary gain, or to meet a need that cannot be met. Finding the need, developing a strategy to meet the need in legitimate ways is the key, using sensitivity and care.<\/h4>\n

The Word of God:<\/h4>\n

Proverbs 23:1<\/h4>\n

\u201cWhen you sit down to dine with a ruler, consider carefully what is before you; and put a knife to your throat, if you are man of great appetite.\u201d<\/h4>\n

Proverbs 23:21<\/h4>\n

\u201cFor the heavy drinker and the glutton will come to poverty, and drowsiness will clothe a man with rags.\u201d<\/h4>\n

Matthew 11:19<\/h4>\n

\u201cThe Son of Man came eating and drinking, and they say behold a gluttonous man and a drunkard, a friend of tax-gathers and sinners! Yet wisdom is vindicated by her deeds.\u201d<\/h4>\n

1 Corinthians 10:7<\/h4>\n

\u201cAnd do not be idolaters, as some of them were, as it is written, \u2018The people sat down to eat and drink, and stood up to play.\u2019\u201d<\/h4>\n

1 Corinthians 10:31<\/h4>\n

\u201cWhether, then, you eat or drink or whatever you do, do all to the glory of God.\u201d<\/h4>\n
