Is there a spiritual dimension to our physical health? This video tackles a sensitive but crucial topic: Is being overweight or obese contrary to God’s will, and is it sin? I delve into biblical principles of discipline, self-control, and honoring God with our bodies to uncover the truth.

While the Bible doesn’t label “fat” as a sin in all instances (though all the things that lead to being fat are explicitly forbidden in the Scripture), I explore how lack of self-control in areas of our lives, including our physical health, can hinder our spiritual walk. I examine how honoring God with our bodies as temples of the Holy Spirit (1 Corinthians 6:19-20) calls us to stewardship and responsible living. Discover how undisciplined habits that lead to unhealthy weight can reflect a broader lack of self-governance, which is contrary to godly character. This video offers a challenging yet compassionate look at aligning our physical choices with our spiritual values and pursuing a life of wholeness in Christ. With the Apostle Paul I say, “I beseech you therefore, brethren, by the mercies of God, that ye present your bodies a living sacrifice, holy, acceptable unto God, which is your reasonable service” (Romans 12:1)!

“Meats for the belly, and the belly for meats: but God shall destroy both it and them. Now the body is not for fornication, but for the Lord; and the Lord for the body.” (1 Corinthians 6:13)

“Know ye not that ye are the temple of God, and that the Spirit of God dwelleth in you? If any man defile the temple of God, him shall God destroy; for the temple of God is holy, which temple ye are.” (1 Corinthians 3:16-17)

“What? know ye not that your body is the temple of the Holy Ghost which is in you, which ye have of God, and ye are not your own? For ye are bought with a price: therefore glorify God in your body, and in your spirit, which are God’s.” (1 Corinthians 6:19-20)
