Itiaba007:I also told a pastor in my area who came to preach to me to show me the verse in the bible where it was written that smoking is a sin, and that's about one year ago and till date he is still searching for the verse, I've been smoking cigarrete for 20 years now and i cant do without smoking because it eases stress for me and makes me to feel more relaxed but i dont know about others, NOTHING IS MORE FUN THAN WAKING UP IN THE MIDDLE OF THE NIGHT YOU TAKE A CHAIR AND SIT BY YOUR BALCONY JUST WATCHING THE MOON AND MEDITATING WITH A STICK OF CIGARRETTE IN YOUR MOUTH. Life is beautiful 1 Like |

Mercychen: you took out of my mouth. plus the following... smoking is not mentioned in the bible like alcohol (strong wine), so also soft drinks were not mentioned too. so i dont think its a matter of it being a sinful thing or not. but,,, is smoking dangerous to your health? is drinking soft drinks dangerous to your health? is taking heavy pain relievers (tramadol and co) dangerous to your health? these 3 are not mentioned SPECIFICALLY in the bible (as far as i know) so don't look at it as sin or blessing .. think of the dangers they pose to your body.. 1 Like 1 Share |

Itiaba007:when you smoke, certain organs and tissues in your body suffer, your blood is deprived of adequate oxygen for optimal performance. That's an error and in the long run you get addicted which is a bigger error. Anything you become a slave to apart from God has become your god which negates God's law. What's bad for your health can't glorify the person who took time to artfully craft your body and place it in your mother's womb. I have some scriptures to back up as images. Ist Corinthians 6:19; 1st Corinthians 10:31;exodus 20:3

It's never a sin forever and ever more. |
Re: Is Smoking A Sin? by T0BY(m): 1:27pm On Oct 10, 2021 |
even if is not a sin, atleast consider the harmful substance that the organs will take in and eventually start failing overtime. Kobojunkie: |

T0BY:Why should I consider it if my God says it does not matter? Should man's opinion of it trump God's judgement where my faith in God is concerned.? |

haddeylium: This is the official post for the month of October, every other posts are nonsense. Mathew 24:14. #PureLang |

paltielx:And Jesus Christ told you that it is not what you eat or ingest that defiles you but instead what you have stored up inside your heart that does - Matthew 15 vs 10 - 20 So if you believe that your body is defiled by things like what you ingest, then you don't understand what defilement really means at all. |

twodee75: Ofcourse, there will always be an exception. Statistically, high percentage of smokers do not live long That someone live long doesn't mean they live an healthy life. Statistically, heavy smokers die about 10 years early. So a smoker who, if not smoking would have lived to 92, dies at 82, after living a long sickly life. |
Re: Is Smoking A Sin? by DavidHarry(m): 1:44pm On Oct 10, 2021 |
The person asking this is probably looking for validation. Don't care whether it is or not, it is better to do without it, including alcohol and pornography. They're all buffers |

LordReed: Sugar is needed in the body. That's the end product of carbohydrates and it helps to yield energy for every life process in the body. Even people with diabetes still needs sugar to power their life process. The only difference is they lack the hormone, insulin which helps in the assimilation of these sugar into the body. Hence it's either they take in insulin or find alternative food. Same can't be said for smoking which ain't even needed at all cos it offset the alignment in our body. It's not good for the linings in our lungs, throats and our stomachs. It wears it away. It's carcinogenic too. Abegi.. Even it's written on the cigarette box that smokers are liable to die young. So don't say no one warned you. |

haddeylium: Bible makes it clear that- "it's not what goes I to the body that defiles the body but what comes out of it". For those that smokes if it's good for your well-being, continue but if otherwise I advice you abstain from it. |

haddeylium: Exodus 20:14 - "Thou shalt not commit adultery" Please post the Bible verse that says "Thou shalt not smoke". Otherwise, shut the fucck up you pharisee. |

Evolutionlove: Really? They are not design for that. Infact, Some studies indicate that over 80 percent of the cigarette smoke particles you inhale stay inside your body. |
Re: Is Smoking A Sin? by Chuksmonika(m): 1:50pm On Oct 10, 2021 |
For me, smoking is not a sin, it is a habit you can decide to pick up and drop anytime you make up your mind. |
Re: Is Smoking A Sin? by Elonmuzk(m): 1:51pm On Oct 10, 2021 |
Smoking is not a sin but you are slowly killing your lungs! |
Re: Is Smoking A Sin? by Rey11(m): 1:51pm On Oct 10, 2021 |
I don't think there's any bible verse that directly condems smoking..I stand corrected.however,let your conscience b d judge of that ,if it feels right and hurts no one. p.s whether u smoke or not, sin or not ...no one will leave this life alive. 1 Like |

Corporate2020: The bible does not specifically condemns smoking or tobacco intake but it contains principles showing that God does not approve of unhealthy and unclean habits. |
Re: Is Smoking A Sin? by Sibrah: 1:53pm On Oct 10, 2021 |
Smoking entails substance intake but in a more dangerous form due to its side effect on the lung. Nicotine can be taken as liquid if I am not mistaken. |

OB7Foreva:i use to think so too, I was a more than a park per day smoker but today I quit and can relax even more comfortable without a cigarette |

Benwallt:Yes, only that the make up of this cigars components are poison. I don't want to bored you with the chemistry of it. Telling someone taking poison is good only if it's done moderately. Doesn't make sense to me |
