Someone asked on the channel if god cared what time we got up and if it mattered if we were early or late risers. He answered that god created light to give life and we are children of light. And darkeness is satan or something like that. I'm kinda freaked out, his answer wasn't very clear and I didn't understand it. I've been working grave yard for years now. I am sinning because I am up ALL night and sleep ALL day? It has never occured to me that this could be a sin.

Please don't listen to this false teacher.
He believes in false doctrines like, the serpent seed doctrine. He teaches that Eve had sex with Satan and conceived Cain.
He believes in racism, that the blacks are evil.
He tells people to leave their denominations and follow only him.
He has so many crazy ideas that it is scary. My friend became an agnostic after sticking with him for 4 years.

God gave us 10 really good rules to follow. I don't see anything there about working the night shift. Man interprets many things in the Bible to have far more significance than God intended. I think what God meant was to live your life in the Light of His Grace not the darkness of satan. Relax, your relationship with God is between you and God only and working the night shift will not compromise that.
God Bless.

This is why organized religion annoys me. There you are, trying to be a good person, doing your job, trying to be a productive member of society and some jackass who knows nothing about you has given you the impression that you may be doing something wrong just by being you and doing your job. Honey, it isn't a sin. The night is every bit as beautiful as the day, all formed by the same Creative Force.
That said,, there is a link between some illnesses and the graveyard shift, so be careful and take care of yourself. Bright Blessings!

No, I don't think you are sinning because you work the grave yard shift. People are wired differently and some truly are night owls. We usually associate darkness with evil and light with purity but not in the sence of night and day or at least I never have.

Well, hey, if vampires can make a career out of grave yard shifts then we should be able to as well. Seriously, Sin is truly in the eye of the beholder so just poke it...lol. Think of it this way, your graveyard shift somewhere in the world is someones day , so really you are up during the day as well as sleeping at night, whoa, I really just totally confused me but I do it so well....lol...

...I know godly men who stay up late at night, because that is when they work the best. I know of no Scripture that says that says it is a sin for you to be up all night and sleep all day - I don't know of any, and I have been reading the Bible for years.
...If this is just this man's opinion (and I'm betting it is)... remember that opinions are like noses - everybody's got one. Be like the Berean Christians, who checked it out (Acts 17:11):
..."These were more fair-minded than those in Thessalonica, in that they received the word with all readiness, and searched the Scriptures daily to find out whether these things were so."
...I believe your schedule, including when you go to bed, when you rise, and when you work, is between you and the Lord.

Wrong program to get advise from. He still believes in Santa and peer pressure to celebrate pagan holidays .
Is he still putting people in hell? A thing like that had been totally condemned by God...thats a teaching of the demons. Genesis states we are to die ...dust to dust for sin. Only a Demon would get pleasure burning people or their children.

Guilt and fear are just part of religion.

I know i am a good person .
Now -get back to work!

I don't think this is sin, but it can be hard on relationships. In Bible days, there weren't electric lights. But the virtuous woman worked into the night.
