Honestly...the questions some christians ask make me feel ashamed.

[size=15pt]You know we have been flowing with the world so well that we forget that friendship with the world is enmity with GOD.

The bible says, the body is the temple of the lord and whoever destroys the temple i will destroy. By boxing, you are intentionally destroying the temple for money.[/size]

Are u also trying to say a Christian shld not indulge in sports?? A Christian footballer gets injured on d pitch, and since his body is d temple of Christ, u mean the Lord will destroy him??

[size=15pt]A footballer does not go to the pitch to harm himself intentionally .[/size]

sorextee:
So, when he recovers from the injury, as a born again xtian, he shld ask God for forgiveness, since he once injured the temple of the Lord(his body), after then, he should retire from football, to avoid further nd unintentional injury to the temple?

You could ask the same question of majority of sports.E.g is a tennis player intentionally harming himself by constantly rotating his shoulders or wrists,how about the ankles?Or athletes who have to constantly train their bodies?

Boxing is a sport that is well regulated-you cannot hit below the belt,you've got to wear gloves etc.unlike the gladiators who fought to death in st Pauls day.
The aim of boxing is to outbox your opponent through still and speed. you'll find that most fights will end by points or TKO. It is dangerous but so are most activities we carry out to one extent or another.

Obviously, it becomes a sin if a boxer goes in to harm intentionally for revenge,personal vendetta or get undue advantage by drugs or using hidden weapons.
Generally,I believe boxing does more good than harm.eg.unruly kids are able to channel their energy. My opinion
