2. Since we are saved by grace, does what we eat and drink matter to God? JTL19 4

Definitely. The Bible says, “Therefore, whether you eat or drink, or whatever you do, do all to the glory of God” (1 Corinthians 10:31). To be clear, we are not saved by our dietary choices. It is a choice given us by God to honor Him. The choice to be temperate is twofold: 1. God is perfectly temperate, and a Christian should seek to be like Him, 2. Our bodies are the temples, or dwelling places, of the Holy Spirit; therefore, we seek to keep our body and mind as healthy and strong as possible. JTL19 4.1
