• 1 John 2:15-16
  Do not love the world or the things in the world. If anyone loves the world, the love of the Father is not in him. For all that is in the world—the lust of the flesh, the lust of the eyes, and the pride of life—is not of the Father but is of the world.
   
• Proverbs 23:1-3
  When you sit down to eat with a ruler,

  If you are a man given to appetite.
  Do not desire his delicacies,
  For they are deceptive food.
  
   
• Galatians 5:21-25
  envy, murders, drunkenness, revelries, and the like; of which I tell you beforehand, just as I also told you in time past, that those who practice such things will not inherit the kingdom of God. But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, longsuffering, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, self-control. Against such there is no law. And those who are Christ's have crucified the flesh with its passions and desires. If we live in the Spirit, let us also walk in the Spirit.
   
• James 1:13-15
  Let no one say when he is tempted, "I am tempted by God"; for God cannot be tempted by evil, nor does He Himself tempt anyone. But each one is tempted when he is drawn away by his own desires and enticed. Then, when desire has conceived, it gives birth to sin; and sin, when it is full-grown, brings forth death.
   
• Proverbs 23:20-21

  Or with gluttonous eaters of meat;
  For the drunkard and the glutton will come to poverty,
  And drowsiness will clothe a man with rags.

• 1 Corinthians 9:25
