Just read you bible.Anything that is considered a sin is written there.For me its not a sin becuase its not written in the bible. Rather what Jesus said was it is not what you take in that constitutes sin but what comes out from your hearth Murder ,Wickedness,Adultery,drunkeness,foolishness,gluttony etc. There is this woman who has done five abortions but she always condeming those who smoke.You are killing innocent people and you are there condemning someone that smokes. Most of the most evil people that have ever existed do not even smoke.Not smoking does not even make you a good person. But if you have started it please don't. 1 Like |

Forget all these responses.... Biblically IT'S NOT BAD......because smoking isn't as old as the Bible. Smoking is being considered bad here (especially 9ja) because it's recorded that perpetrators of evil happen to engage in it over 80% of time due to its psychoactive stimulating features by increasing one's dopamine hormone level in d blood.....Hence altering one's judgment (A.K.A gives mind). E nor dey Bible.....but use Ur head. 2 Likes |

baralatie:Do you listen to this God at all or does what He actually says to you not matter at all? God told you in Matthew 15 vs 10 - 20 that it is not what you eat or ingest from the outside that defiles you- causes you to sin against Him- but instead what is already stored up in your heart that does. Sin is disobedience of God's actual commandments to you and keeping your body clean and pure is not one of God's commandments. 1 Like |

Itiaba007: Smoking is not a sin hence you ain't doing it deliberately to inflict self damage or to hurt another...So long there's joy while smoking and it's for relaxation purposes without it affecting anything around you negatively then I don't think it's a sin...same as masturbation,so long you don't do it excessively damaging your sex organs,then it's not a sin. |

You already made up your mind on smoking only to come and argue about smoking. The law of God is not meant for people who are right in their own way also not for unbeliever so if you want to set ur ldol in your heart and u want argument all l want to say is you need genuine repentance that makes u surrender to christ totally by acknowledging your sin and confess ur sin and repent accept christ as your Lord and Savior 2 Likes |

Kobojunkie:through whom it, sin, is defined for us. [/quote] Bro cool down and learn. Sin is divided into two, moral/religious sin legal sin. Smoking is a moral/religious sin, but not a legal sin. |

LordReed: The greatest problem of most of these mediocre religious people Is "IGNORANCE, DECEPTION, MANIPULATION & HYPOCRISY" Only True EDUCATION & True Consciousness can set them free. Keep on educating and countering them. Meanwhile at the bolded..... 1 Like

Omoluabiii:There is no such thing as moral or religious sin. There is just sin which refers to disobedience of any of the commandment explicitly given to us in God's Law to us, Jesus Christ. Smoking is not a sin because Jesus Christ never gave us rules about smoking being a sin. Smoking is instead considered a moral issue and this by society and by extension government of men. 2 Likes |

I don't smoke, and I don't think it's a sin. If you attach the health risk involved in it to justify the sin stuff, then soft drinks have been fingered as causes of diabetes which in itself is a health risk.... probably only water is drinkable and sinless las las.

Jones4190:the way some people reason heeen... Even federal ministry of health warns that smokers are liable to die young, go and check the statistics of people give up the ghost annually due to smoking. Smokes damage ur body. And according to 1 Corinthians 6:19 What? know ye not that your body is the temple of the Holy Ghost which is in you, which ye have of God, and ye are not your own? Also 1 Corinthians 3:16 Know ye not that ye are the temple of God, and that the Spirit of God dwelleth in you? Now check this 1 Corinthians 3:17 If any man defile the temple of God, him shall God destroy; for the temple of God is holy, which temple ye are. So therefore Romans 12:1 I beseech you therefore, brethren, by the mercies of God, that ye present your bodies a living sacrifice, holy, acceptable unto God, which is your reasonable service.
