why do u want to know if anyone has a problem with you being born again and a spliff head?

since when did anyone become answerable to another? your belief is personal so dont invite criticism from people who are not[b] perfect[/b].

what does your conscience and your doctrine say about this is what you should explore instead of asking people what they feel about it. i can't judge you because i have done and still do things that are not so christ like.

i can advise you from an unbiased point of view, and say to you '' weed is wack, it does nothing for you mentally '' so from a medical perspective, you doing damage to your brain. END OF STORY

busygirl,

so you are now judge and saviour of babaearly. haba. you people. who are you to say that the gentleman is not born again, and how dare you say the holy spirit has left him. What rubbish! And please tell me exactly what qualifies "grieving the holy spirit". Get a clue and grow up! Stop this judgemental nonsense! It is not the nature of christ.

what's a "spliff head"?

Um, since James 5:16? "Therefore confess your sins to each other and pray for each other so that you may be healed. The prayer of a righteous man is powerful and effective. "

If he considers it a sin then it's good that he's confessing to his "brethren".  Although Im sure he only posted this for the attention.   wink

WRONG! Cannabis has been used for its medicinal properties for centuries.

Fact: Medicinal marijuana alleviates the chronic symptoms of many diseases such as Fibromyalgia, spasticity from multiple sclerosis, depression, chronic pain, and nausea associated with chemotherapy.

The conspiracy not to make it legal continues, however its medicinal benefits cannot be denied and in fact has recently gained momentum in terms of confirmation.  Do your own research as see for yourself dear.  The problem is the abuse of it, and the overuse of it for euphoric purposes.  Marijuana is neither addictive nor "wack" as you so eloquently put it.

Don't believe that media rubbish about it affecting mental health.  On campus many of my colleagues smoked the cannabis and it helped them focus.  I know of people who've smoked it into old age and they are fine.

However, nothing should be abused.

Re: I'm A Christian And I Smoke Herbs by sisimose(f): 7:47pm On Mar 27, 2007
i refuse to debate whether weed is medicinal or not, i refuse, those who know the effect know, those who like it , well ROLL ON grin
Re: I'm A Christian And I Smoke Herbs by Nobody: 12:32am On Mar 28, 2007
I have been shocked in nairaland several times.
The same lady who quotes scriptures and is a Christian first of all sees nothing with sleeping with a man she's not married to,now she tells us weed is good for her medicinally.
God have mercy!!.

MY dear pray that the sickness that only weed can "cure" shall not come to your doorsteps.
Our bodies are the temple of the Holy Ghost and we shall give account what we did with it.
@ the poster if indeed you are living for Christ,the Holy Spirit in you will tell you that such things are un becoming,bad habits are hard to break but not impossible to those that believe but as long as you justify it,God can't force his will on you.
Re: I'm A Christian And I Smoke Herbs by stimulus(m): 12:43am On Mar 28, 2007
You know, we really don't need some weblink for "proof" of the medicinal value of weed - especially of the green, raw and wet ones!

There are lots of people who roam our streets (from 42nd Street, Manhattan, NY to Idumota, Lagos) who are living "proof" of this medicinal value - they have been cured of their sanity! And society has no problem with that!!

Infact, here's a recommendation: smoke the wet weed - there's "speed" in that brand; and the next we know is that another Reverend King will be on the loose!!
Re: I'm A Christian And I Smoke Herbs by Nobody: 12:47am On Mar 28, 2007
Cocaine and Heroine all have medicinal uses too,don't they?
Infact cocaine was used for decades as dental anesthesia and the coca leaves are used by herbalists.

Just because weed is a plant does not make it a vegetable people!

How long have you been keeping that one on your chest?

Have mercy on you! Because if you do a simple thing like Google the medicinal properties of marijuana and get off the moral high horse you'll see what I'm saying is fact.

You would also have seen that the use of it is not smoking it from a chalice for euphoric purposes, but using in other forms in controlled amounts ie pills etc.

I'm so sick of people judging others for their opinion.  Especially married women who all of a sudden think they're saints.  Imagine on this thread you have the gall to imply that I'm a fornicator because I hold the opinion that according to the bible's definition of fornication, sex with your partner before marriage is not a sin.  So far NO ONE has been able to prove anything different.  Only cast aspersions and foolish judgements.  No wonder people are turned off of christianity when people like you think they're better because they follow what their interpretation of the Bible is.

At least I am not a hypocrite.  We are all works in progress  as we submit to the potter's hands.

This is the same reason people are so shocked when pastors are found sleeping with members, laundering cash and having extra marital affairs.  This foolish expectation that christians are perfect and blameless.  Nonsense.  They sin in secret.  I on the other hand have nothing to hide.  I used to smoke weed.  So what.  If I had a partner, which I don't at the moment, I would have no problem being intimate with him (after a while) if we love each other and we're in a committed relationship.  Period. If I am wrong God will work on changing me as I continue to submit to HIS spirit, and NOT what PEOPLE SAY Christianity is supposed to be.

Not was my dear, not was, IS.  (see Cocaine or Lidocaine) How hard is it to do some research or read a book! All herbs come from God.  It not the use of it that's bad, it's the ABUSE of it that causes problems.   Cannabis is not a plant, it's a HERB. And I dont see anyone here saying that it should be used as one of the food groups.

Get a clue.

"This guy" doesn't even smoke weed. He's just an instigator. He raises threads for a response. He's not serious.
He needs no "advice"

Well "honey" IF that's true, it says a lot about your ability to understand and your intellect, judging by the level of ignorance you're displaying in your contributions.

Well, I don't know what stimulus is talking about.  If wet weed is weed mixed with crack, it's not the pure herb.
We dont do that in Trini.

well like sisimose said

who are we to judge you? and why would we have a problem with it if you don't?

its left for you and your conscience to settle if its ok or not?

nobody is perfect, we all have our faults so i guess the right thing to say is that its between you and your God wink
