Many point their fingers are those who drink alcohol or smoke but gluttony is equally a sin. They do not think anything of gorging themselves at the dinner table.

H, Ryan. Hopefully, you came across this word in your bible. ( hint ) ;)

Merriam-Webster: gluttony 1. Excess in drinking or eating and 2. Greedy or excessive indulgence. 

And of course, this was explained clearly enough by missmuffet. Thank you, sister. God bless.

Shalom,

David/BeauJangles

Gluttony was addressed to the church at Corinth, regarding the abuse at the Lord's supper gathering. It has been addressed even at the gathering  and misuse of manna. It involves hoarding and taking without concern for command from God trust in God's provision, and also without consideration for the need of others. It is more than being impolite or stuffing to great satisfaction at a feast  of plenty. It is  born of greed and of fear that there will not be enough for self. It is distrust of God, and His provision.

It is an excess of indulging in ones self, either of the quantity of food and drink or of the quality of it, or any other excess like your relentless asking of questions on forums and never replying to them.
