2 Peter 1:6

6. Knowledge, perverted, may become conceited and self-indulgent, as in the idol feasts at Corinth, ( 1Co 8:1 ; 1 Corinthians 8:10,) and in the teachings of the Gnostics; in your knowledge, therefore, furnish temperance self-control by which all desires and passions shall be held in proper check, often even to total abstinence, as, for instance, in intoxicating drinks. The question of amusements falls under this rule. But as severe self-control may become ascetic and intolerant, it must be tempered by patience, or patient endurance; and in exercising patience, to guard against a stoical apathy or indifference, furnish godliness, fearing, trusting, and communing with God.
