Eating and Drinking

Proverbs 6:1-19
Psalm 119:1-24
1 John 5:1-12
Matthew 11:16-24


Matthew 11:16-24


As far as the intake of his physical sustenance was concern John was very circumspect. He ate locusts and wild honey, no feasting with wealthy tax -collecting gourmands or even gourmets. John left that lifestyle to his cousin Jesus.
Both Jesus and John had an intimate relationship with God the Father. He obviously did not lay down rules about the lifestyle of the people he would or would not associate with. Presumably what is good enough for God is good enough for me.
