Does the Bible say anything about doing adventure sports?

He does care about what we do, but He does not care for reckless endangerment by Christians. There are plenty of low-risk and no-risk sports.

Yes hiking is very nice. This summer I was hiking 4 days alone. It was amazing. The first two days I hiked north into the forest and slept in a tent. Then I kayaked back and camped by the river that leads down back to where I live. Some people think I was crazy to do it alone, but it was so nice.

It's not like I go out off-piste where it's closed or if I don't know it's safe. I always think about safety, but of course there are risks, it's dangerous to travel with a car, but we all do it anyway. For me, adventure sports are something that gives me a kick, to try new things, to get an adrenaline rush from going out on a cliff with the snowboard or skydiving. I try to see my limitations so I'm not like some people who take chances and take unnecessarily dangerous risks.

And there it is. As a Christians you do not focus on thrills and adrenaline rushes from sports. That is for non-Christians. So you need to rearrange your priorities. And mentioning driving as a risk is not even valid. That is an essential activity, not for kicks and thrills.

But you can either do as you please and tempt the Lord, or change your priorities and do His will. You wanted a biblical perspective and Christ showed you what it is in the passage quoted by me.

wish I could take a long hike.

Yes, if you get the chance to do it you should. Maybe first times is good to do it with some one else if you never hike before.

hmm. I might like to try skydiving sometime. not very dangerous either. less so than snowboarding.

do be aware that close to 4 million people skydive each year. I'd be willing to take that risk. there is a reason for double-checks.

yes as you say there is a higher risk going in a car then skydiving, and most of accidents in skydiving is cos bu the person who not make shore the equipment is done right. I always check everything myself, I would never just take for shore that other people pack it correct.

I know that it says in the Bible that we are His temple. I understand that you should take care of yourself and eat healthy and such. But does the Bible say anything about doing adventure sports, like parachuting, climbing and snowboarding off-piste and such?
My foster mother, who is not a Christian, asked if it is ok for me to do that now that I am a Christian. I haven't thought about it before. I love those kinds of sports and wouldn't want to stop doing it. It helps me to become calm and be able to concentrate on other things when I need it

Found scripture: the context is about sexual immorality, that was the writing from Paul to the Corinthians as he shared what he knew in himself, about ut hid freedom given him
1 Cor 6:12
12 All things are lawful for me, but not all things are profitable. All things are lawful for me, but I will not be mastered by anything.


Living Bible 1 Cor 6:12

12 I can do anything I want to if Christ has not said no,[a] but some of these things aren’t good for me. Even if I am allowed to do them, I’ll refuse to if I think they might get such a grip on me that I can’t easily stop when I want to.

that is the key to me seeing I can do all things, I am allowed, therefore I see to consider the cost if I do whatever I choose to do, and then see not to do or go ahead and do. That is the learning process, as long as I am not harming others in the process
I see I can do snowboarding, have a great time. I see to do it, I am freed to go ahead.
It ask like, I see others not good with me doing something, I see not to tell them about and not do it in front of those that get thier consciences harmed by my doing it. I get that part from Romans 14, the writing about food, is that good to eat and the other not?
Also in Romans 14 I get from Paul


New International Version- Romans 14:8-14

8 If we live, we live for the Lord; and if we die, we die for the Lord. So, whether we live or die, we belong to the Lord. 9 For this very reason, Christ died and returned to life so that he might be the Lord of both the dead and the living.
10 You, then, why do you judge your brother or sister[a]? Or why do you treat them with contempt? For we will all stand before God’s judgment seat. 11 It is written:
“‘As surely as I live,’ says the Lord,
‘every knee will bow before me;
every tongue will acknowledge God.’”[b]
12 So then, each of us will give an account of ourselves to God.
13 Therefore let us stop passing judgment on one another. Instead, make up your mind not to put any stumbling block or obstacle in the way of a brother or sister. 14 I am convinced, being fully persuaded in the Lord Jesus, that nothing is unclean in itself. But if anyone regards something as unclean, then for that person it is unclean.

This was good text for this yes. Things should not get in be twine me and God re harm any other. And is not like I'm not careful even if I some time take a very high cliff and jump from with snowboard, I always take a look at the landing, calculating the risk and so on before doing anything.

Simply listen from within you, where God lives for you through you to be able to do as called by God to do.
God only wants what is best fro us all
Jeremiah 29:11. Therefore each morning stop and pray (Have a conversation) with God Father of risen Son. You will hear and know, and learn to do when you knew to do or not do, by the mistakes made.
Oh boy, have I. I was an alcoholic, a druggie, a womanizer, a get drunk and be lucky attitude, the life of the party type of person, that was in angst over the trouble when my sis died at age 18, I was 14 then.
God never left me as people assuredly did. God never, and I am so grateful, I saw those things as not good for me, so I quit, it took time, yet I saw not good for me, so I quit
Love to you, and enjoy your life here and later, God just loves us all to appreciate, not to be in contempt over this amazing love and mercy given us.

The scripture talking about your body being the temple of the Spirit is talking about adultery/fornication. In fact, it states that every other sin that we commit has nothing to do with our body, but that sexual immorality is the way we harm, or sin against our body, the temple. It has nothing to do with smoking, drinking, hang-gliding.... basically, don't be sexually immoral, because your body is a temple for the Spirit of God.

But you can either do as you please and tempt the Lord

like what? I would like to know a few.
