1. No.
2. It's not in the Bible.

...

Doesn't say anything about lent. It's taking about fasting period. Nothing to do with lent.

Verse 14

Of course I do.
It's biblical and ecclesiastical.

What do you think Lent is, my historically challenged friend?

Neither is brushing your teeth, but you (probably) still do it.

Unlike brushing your teeth, fasting is a way of devoting yourself to and giving honor to God, leading up to the celebration of His resurrection. So is "it not in muh book" an excuse to skirt an opportunity to honor God?

It's not wiping ash on your forehead like pagans. If you need to be reminded to honor God something isn't right with your heart.

That's not what lent is about. Fasting is honoring, not a reminder to honor. Let incessant prayer be your reminder.

no.
