We live in a judgmental age in which no one measures up, either to the expectations of the critical or to their own expectations. Insults are the order of the day. Does the Bible take part in that judgment? When Paul warns that there are enemies of Christ and “their god is their belly,” what’s he saying? Are the body-shamers right? No. God is the giver of all good things. Each one of us, no matter what we look like, bears the image of God. The trick is to accept and celebrate the good things of this earth without making gods of them. youtu.be/zLkxvPYQPlA
