Hello guys, it's the beginning of the year and as expected different churches begin the year with various Fasting and prayer timetable. My church prayer and fasting is currently on and the Lord has been so good.

A discussion abt fasting ensued btw a friend and I and he was trying to explain dat 6 to 6 fasting is btween the hrs of 6am to 6pm, while I disagree. I caught him eating around 1am wen we came back from night class way back in school and since, he eats at midnight during fasting period.

I have tried to make realise there is nothing like eating at dawn in christian fasting but he won't listen, pls guys can anyone shed more light?

Is 6 to 6 fasting just from 6am to 6pm?

Biblically speaking, a new daytime begins from 6am, that is from dawn. It is western time that begins a new day from 12 midnight.

12 midnight to 6am is still night time, biblically speaking. So 6 to 6 fasting is exactly that, 6 to 6. If you don't want to mix hebrew and western time together.

the Hebrews used to fast for 24hrs... from dusk to dusk(6pm to 6pm)

check this thread... www.nairaland.com/2100964/types-fasting

tho its called 6 to 6 fast. But the fast actually starts at 12 midnight. What this means is that you're required to go hungry from 12 midnight to 6pm.

You have to consult your pastors and mogs ---the ones you fill your heads with lies that by starving yourselves of food you can presumably get God's attention when God never said you could---, for recommendations on that.

You can eat anything you want. As long as it's compatible with your system.

Thank you so much boss
