| ORHow often did he indicate we should change any of our physical characteristics, eating habits, exercise? - all the things we are hung up on today.Serious inquiry.I think the answer is zero - but I don't know for sure.Asking for a friend.What did Jesus say |

| I'm not sure of any command in the corpus of Scripture that directly concerns corporeal corpulence.However, there are a lot of verses about possessing our bodies in honor, controlling our bodies and fleshly desires, exercising self control, etc. and unless someone has a medical condition that is making them fat, these Scriptures IMO probably apply to obesity as well. |

| I don't think crack was invented then, but overweight folks existed. How often did he chastise them |

| Yes, He did.And it says laying aside EVERY weight. This obviously means that one shouldn't be a single pound overweight. |

| Sorry guys.If Jesus didn't get see the need to get worked up about it...neither do I.He did seem to ratify the 10 commandments and summed them up more succinctly.As for homosexuality - he did say marriage was between a man and a woman.He indicated eating fish, bread, olives and figs were ok.Any water you could turn into wine was apparently ok to drink, as well.He never mentioned a limit on the amount to eat- in fact - when he produced fish and bread - he made an unlimited supply |

| I'm sure Jesus is against Ecclesiastical porn (remember that one!) and you guys all partake in that.For shame |

| You shouldn't get worked up about it as a matter of biblical command, and you shouldn't pay heed to anyone who does so from a pulpit when they're supposed to be busy proclaiming the gospel and Christ's work.But that doesn't mean we shouldn't get worked up about it, for the sake of our own health, for the sake of our families, and for the sake of living a long and energetic life of faithfulness to God. |
