EAT. DRINK. GLORY!

“So, whether you eat or drink, or whatever you do, do all to the glory of God.”
Is it sin to disobey this biblical commandment?

Yes.

So I draw this somber conclusion: It is sin to eat or drink or do anything not for the glory of God. In other words, sin is not just a list of harmful things (killing, stealing, lying, sexual immorality, etc.).
Sin is leaving God out of account in the ordinary affairs of your life. Sin is anything you do that you don’t do for the glory of God.

“Well, how do you “eat and drink” to the glory of God? Say, a Starbucks Vanilla Soy Latte for breakfast, for instance?

Answer:
1 Timothy 4:3–5:
[Some] forbid marriage and require abstinence from foods that God created to be received with thanksgiving by those who believe and know the truth. For *everything* created by God is good, and nothing is to be rejected if it is received with thanksgiving, for it is made holy by the word of God and prayer.

Vanilla lattes were "created to be received with thanksgiving by those who believe … the truth.” Therefore, unbelievers cannot use a latte for the purpose God intended—namely, as an *occasion for heartfelt thanksgiving* to God from a *true heart of faith.*

But believers CAN, and this is how they glorify God. Their drinking a latte is “made holy by the word of God and prayer”
(1 Timothy 4:5).

The Word of God teaches us that coffee, and even our strength to drink it, is a free gift of God (1 Corinthians 4:7; 1 Peter 4:11). The prayer is our humble response of thanks from the heart. Blessing (to say something good about) HIM.

Believing this truth in the Word and offering thanks in prayer is one way we drink a latte to the glory of God.

So..... Whatever you do.... DO IT ALL....
To the GLORY of GOD!!!

That just feels right!!

Sip. Ahhhhhh. Praise You LORD, for lips to sip and this instrument of taste!!
YOU ARE GOOD!!
