You keep asking over and over, if its ok. And many people keep telling you over and over that they don't see that it is ok. You asked, and they answered. But you keep asking.. that says one thing: You don't want us to tell you if its ok or not. You simply want us to tell you "Yeah its ok, go ahead and do it." You don't WANT to hear that maybe its not ok..
Basically you are going to do what you want regardless of what we say, you are basically looking for justification for your actions, and that is not the proper motivation to ask a question. You have to be open to all points of view, the positive and the negative. If you are only going to do what you wanted to do anyway, then there is no point in asking.
Star is correct.. worship is a lifestyle. And *everything* we do should honor God. God does'nt turn his back at any second of the day. He isn't just watching during Church or when we pray.. He is eternally watching us in life. All your actions, your words, your behavior, should be honoring God. And sometimes we don't act in accordance with that standard, and thats ok because we make mistakes, we make poor judgement. And we have a forgiving God. But the question is when we do something that doesn't necessarily honor God, are we willing to recognize when we need to give it up? Or are we gonna do it anyway just because it feels good, and just ignore God.
We can't tell you what to do. We can only give an opinion or state scripture from the Bible, which also usually accompanies a person's opinion.
If you are truly looking for an answer to your question, weigh everyone's opinions and information equally. If you are going to only do what you want anyway, your post is irrelevant, and so are the answers you have received.
Did you ever think that the answer to prayers or to asking a question of God could come in the form of other human beings answering you? Think about that.. God doesn't answer us always with a big booming voice from the Heavens. He does so in other ways.. through our lives, through the people in our lives, He answers. Listen to everyone, weigh people's thoughts and actions and how they relate to you. If you are going to ask anything of God, or of another human being, you must be open to everything that is said and done towards getting you an answer.
God does not always give us favorable answers, He gives us truthful ones. So also, when you ask something of God, make sure you are open to His guidance as well.. because sometimes when we feel God disapproves of something in our lives, we also have a tendency to ignore it and do what we want anyway.
I'm not saying who is right and who is wrong with this post, I'm just saying you need to weigh every single piece of information, instead of simply looking for justification.
