Is eating dessert a sin?
I know this may sound very silly, but bear with me. This is only an example; I ask this of many other things we do for pleasure that we think (or at least, that I have not thought) are not wrong. These include things that we spend time on (hobbies) and things that we spend money on.
I ask this because it seems that doing these things is bad compared to doing more godly things. For example, buying something that I don't need but is only for pleasure seems like a sin compared to giving the money to someone in need. Spending time playing videogames seems sinful compared to spending time witnessing to others about Jesus.
These simple things we do for pleasure seem selfish and won't matter in the end, when we are in heaven, but serving God will have mattered. Does this mean these things are sinful?
