Re: Is smoking marijuana a sin?

I, a miserable sinner, am indeed breathing now. As are you (Matthew 7:1 refers.) And only constant attendance to the precepts of the True Christian Church can mitigate the error. But it is my firm belief that there is no exhalation in Heaven, and that the saved will continuously inhale without ever breathing out.

Matthew 7:1? Post that scripture in context, boy. I am overflowing with Christ's Holy love and am without sin as 1 John 3 says.

5And ye know that he was manifested to take away our sins; and in him is no sin.
6Whosoever abideth in him sinneth not: whosoever sinneth hath not seen him, neither known him.
7Little children, let no man deceive you: he that doeth righteousness is righteous, even as he is righteous.

There is no beam in mine eye, son.

Re: Is smoking marijuana a sin?

Wow, way to take something out of context. Are you a mooslimb? Your name doesn't exactly sound Christian.

Brother Seth, the Lord directs my understanding of His Word, and it is not for me to argue with Him. Or for you either, for that matter. Please read my introductory posts for an explanation of my adopted name, which is not associated with the Satanic adherents of the raghead cult even now threatening to destroy everything we hold dear and deny us our rights to God's own oil, which is meant for True Believers only. David Ben Ahzea is my Rapture name.

You may call me Duncan.

Or Sir.

Your brother in Jesus

Dunk.

Ok fair enough about the one in heaven.

Re: Is smoking marijuana a sin?

What is that verse going to do with breathing?

Plus, aren't you breathing now?

Re: Is smoking marijuana a sin?

I am saddened by Pastor Ezekiel's inattention to the Word of God in this matter. It is of course perfectly true that the secular laws must be obeyed, but he fails to note that the act of exhalation itself is censured by strong implication.

In Acts 9:1-

" And Saul, yet breathing out threatenings and slaughter against the disciples of the Lord, went unto the high priest,"

This refers to Saul before the scales fell from his eyes and he received Jesus into his heart, thereby becoming St. Paul. Breathing out is the act of a wicked and unjust man.

Re: Is smoking marijuana a sin?

That's up to you to decide.

Though I preferred to be call by my name, Daniel.

Daniel I find your words uplifting.

And I feel that putting anything into the body other than the oxygen we need to survive is a sin. By smoking we would be insulting God. And you are right. The body is given to us by God. Therefore we must treat it with respect and love . In the name of Jesus.

He saith unto them, "Are ye so without understanding also? Do ye not perceive that whatsoever thing from without entereth into the man, it cannot defile him.... That which cometh out of the man, that defileth the man." (Mark 7:18-20)



Brethren and sistren: this can only mean that smoking cannabis is good in the sight of the Lord, so long as you do not exhale.

Praise the Lord for showing Us His will.

Not only is it a sin. When I was a cop I would make sure you got life behind bars!

Re: Is smoking marijuana a sin?

Hmm.... how do you smoke when there's inhale and no exhale?

Hi there,

I know English isn't your first language, so you probably don't understand that it's a joke. He's basically saying that the person has to hold their breath forever, and only then is it not a sin.

Re: Is smoking marijuana a sin?

Feel free to label me as Fundamentalist, but it's a sin for me simply because you are hurting our body, which is temple of Holy Spirit. If you love God, why would you do that? Plus, your body was bought over by His Blood, it's no longer yours to deal with. He entrusted you to take good care of it. Not destroy it.

I'm strongly against smoking, alcohol, night clubbing and drugs.

Call me chinaman, or traditionalist. I don't care.

I obey what God teaches. That's it. Simple.
