Dear Brothers and Sisters,
Something i have been pondering about. Havent had a preist to talk to about this but, was curious what yall thought.
Bodybuilding= The process of developing the musculature of the body through specific types of diet and physical exercise, such as weightlifting, especially for competitive exhibition.
How can this sport not be an act of worshiping idols?
Bare with me now, Since we are all into the same "obsession", To become "perfect". For example, We train day in and day out, trying to eat, count calories, plan diets, buy supplements, check bodyfat, etc. etc. We flex in mirrors, to either watch poses, or to admire our work.
How can this not be worshipping ourselves?
Now I understand there are grey areas, black or white, but this is something that could be a good reminder for me and you.
Then there is also the other side.....
Steroids..... Call em what you will.... prohormones, anabolics, aah, etc. etc. How can this be justified?
Could you take it to an extreme of, eating organic.... "treating our body as a temple" i know you have heard it. But I really dont think taking them and in your mind knowing they are wrong is even more wrong. Dont have my bible on hand.....
But isnt it a medicine? Serms, Sarms, herbal test boosters, so on and so on...... Test enth for example could be considered natural..... Yes we make it.... But..... Yeah..... Where do you take it to.....
Bodybuilding..... Competitions.... boasting in gains? See where im going with this?
Now in defence i LOVE this sport.... I dream about getting bigger daily. But I still keep my focus, and keep it as priority one, on Jehovah in to become stronger mentally and wiser in HIM daily.
I guess the main 'vague' question is, is this sport a SIN?
SImple answer would be as long as you keep focus on HIM, and do everything in HIS name.....
But im not looking for that kind of answer LOL
GOd BLess. Up for much debate! [HR][/HR]
