Agree but what you are missing is that half of those items listed are man made rules (drinking alcohol). The other half are things some don’t wish to follow even when it is for our benefit (working on Sunday).

It isn’t the church’s problem, it is our sinful nature that causes these problems. If others exhibit these issues then we should not see the splinter in our brother’s eye. If we exhibit these issues, then we better look to our own salvation to see if we are in the faith.

But they carry over INTO the church.

And church is where these things need to be examined - against what the BOOK has to say about them.


1 Corinthians 6:12
Everything is permissible for me, but not all things are beneficial.
