Re: Is smoking marijuana a sin?

Well, young fella, I am not at all surprised you do not know what I am talking about. It was fairly obvious from your ramblings you are a druggie. Irritability, loss of concentration, desire to justify wrong doings.
I am surprised W-O spent the time on you as all the information he posted and wrote was already in this and all the other druggie threads that you were too lazy to read. I am sure you will create a new account tomorrow, having forgotten you created one today and ask the same question with the same belligerence.

James, you are experienced and wise.

But you are not intellegent, nor mature.


And Nobar, smoking cigarettes are without a doubt sinful, and is also an absolutely disgusting habit.

God Bless.

You are no judge of my intelligence. You have no idea.


So let me get this straight, smoking pot is OK and not sinful, but cigarettes are sinful?

Hoho, ooohh...

You're mere response is proof enough of your intellegence.

You can't even spell your right, so much for intelligence. (Which you also can't spell). Why would anyone listen to you? You might want to just stop using apostrophes, since you clearly don't know how to use them.

Baby behavior. I still amazed at W-O for wasting his time with you. You did not care. You do not care. Enjoy being human refuse. It was fairly obvious to me from your first post.

Re: Is smoking marijuana a sin?

The only reason I would see this as being a sin is because marijuana, and all drugs alike, can lead to obsession, which take up your life, and take your attention away from God. This goes for any kind of obsession, not just drugs.

Although the Bible does not address marijuana directly, it does discuss other mind-altering drugs. Specifically, the Bible addresses the use of drugs in the book of Galatians:

Now the deeds of the flesh are evident, which are: immorality, impurity, sensuality, idolatry, sorcery, enmities, strife, jealousy, outbursts of anger, disputes, dissensions, factions, envying, drunkenness, carousing, and things like these, of which I forewarn you, just as I have forewarned you, that those who practice such things will not inherit the kingdom of God. (Galatians 5:19-21)

So, where are the drugs mentioned in this verse? Actually, the word translated "sorcery" is the Greek word pharmakeia,from which we get the English word "pharmacy." The primary meaning is "the use or the administering of drugs" (usually associated with sorcery or idolatry). Since this verse comes from a list of things that if practiced would preclude one from heaven, this should be a reasonably strong suggestion that the Christian should not practice drug use. In addition, the book of Revelation lists drug use as one of the things for which the unrepentant will suffer the wrath of God.

Thanks for the verse, very helpful in getting the point across.

You are so right, obsessions are of the Devil.
I spend hours in my Prayer Closet talking to Jesus about this very subject.

You are sinning by posting your dope-pushing filth all over our Godly forum. Are you too stoned to find the "Shift" key that God provided? No one is going to take you seriously when you post like a mental case.

Re: Is smoking marijuana a sin?

Family Guy did a very good episode on weed...the point of how the timber industry saw hemp as a threat and so 'demonized' it, and it is actually less damaging than alcohol use. As I don't smoke it, I couldn't say how true this is, but family guy is not kown for not being candid.
