D.      Dancing, playing cards, secular music, drinking wine, etc : All personal convictions taught by the prophet, not commandments of scripture (even though dancing, gambling, secular music, drinking wine, etc is found in scripture).  We are each called to a PERSONAL walk with God, allowing the Holy Spirit to guide us in our own convictions of the ‘gray’ areas, not someone else’s.  And not to judge each other, preach at each other, or condemn each other based on our personal convictions.  This is specifically spelled out in Romans 14, even to the point of naming those who live legalistic as being “weak in the faith”.  Mark 7:8 and Matt 15:6 “You disregard and give up and ask to depart from you the commandment of God and cling to the tradition of men; you have set aside the Word of God, making it of no effect” God help us!
