What is panthiesm religion?

Sincerely,
“Pan”icked

Dear “Pan”icked,

Pantheism comes from ‘pan’, meaning ‘all’, and ‘theos’ means ‘god’.  Pantheism is the idea that there is no one all-powerful God.  Instead, Pantheism teaches that a god is simply representative of all the universe and natural laws.  Pantheism places its trust in the natural world and the structure of the physical universe.  Pantheists find solace and peace in nature and find all their purpose in this world only.  Pantheism teaches that this life is all there is… no eternity, no heaven, no hell, and no Judgment Day.  Pantheism is in direct opposition to the teachings of the Scripture.  From as early as Gen. 1:1, the Bible teaches that there is an all-powerful God and that we are accountable to Him.  When we die, we shall all face the judgment of a just and supernatural God (Heb 9:27).

At what point is the consumption of ice cream considered to be gluttonous and, therefore, a sin?  To be more specific, how many times a day is it acceptable for a christian to have a serving of ice cream?  Thank you so much for your insight.

Sincerely,
Waffling About The Cone

Dear Waffling About The Cone,

We specialize in Bible answers to questions, and there is no specific number of scoops that the Bible dictates you can or cannot have… so all you ice cream lovers take a deep breath and relax!  The Bible addresses gluttony as an act of laziness (Pr 19:24) and an abuse of the body God has given you (1 Cor 6:19).  Physical exercise is noted as being profitable, but not nearly as important as spiritual exercise (1 Tim 4:8).  Overall, the Scriptures lay out a general principle of healthy living and not overindulging.  Moderation is the key, and there is a time for everything (Eccl 3:1).  Just make sure you balance out that Rocky Road with a little broccoli from time to time!
