7.10-Don't let anyone steal your joy in celebrating life.
7.10-
God teaches in the Bible that if you are walking with Jesus then you have a right to celebrate and enjoy your life with Him. When Jesus was here on earth they accused Him of being a glutton and a drunkard. He was not. He enjoyed the blessings of life in moderation and drew all kinds of people to himself including tax collectors and prostitutes. For this He was criticized. Even the only perfect person to ever walk on earth could not avoid negative comments. Enjoy your life. Don't let the nay sayers ruin your joy in life.
Matthew 9.
14 Then John’s disciples came and asked him, “How is it that we and the Pharisees fast often, but your disciples do not fast?”
15 Jesus answered, “How can the guests of the bridegroom mourn while he is with them? The time will come when the bridegroom will be taken from them; then they will fast.
16 “No one sews a patch of unshrunk cloth on an old garment, for the patch will pull away from the garment, making the tear worse. 17 Neither do people pour new wine into old wineskins. If they do, the skins will burst; the wine will run out and the wineskins will be ruined. No, they pour new wine into new wineskins, and both are preserved.”
1 Timothy 4.

1 Timothy 4.
4 The Spirit clearly says that in later times some will abandon the faith and follow deceiving spirits and things taught by demons. 2 Such teachings come through hypocritical liars, whose consciences have been seared as with a hot iron. 3 They forbid people to marry and order them to abstain from certain foods, which God created to be received with thanksgiving by those who believe and who know the truth. 4 For everything God created is good, and nothing is to be rejected if it is received with thanksgiving, 5 because it is consecrated by the word of God and prayer.
