Did God create marijuana for you to inhale to your destruction?

So in what modest way can you take sugar so it doesn’t kill you? Because it seems the way humans consume it is the reason why they die from diabetes (according to your half brain logic).

You’ve left your argument only to jump to the means of consumption. Olodo, enter class you say no, now see your life.

Your comment doesn't make any sense. Inhaling the marijuana is that what would cause destruction? Your pastor has a lot of work to do on you. Or maybe you don't know the meaning of destruction

Sugar is in ,cassava,yam,eba,garri,rice,Amala,wheat(in the form of starch).this is what your body needs to generate sugar for your energy and for further breakdown to get other nutrients your body needs!

Oh i'm sorry i have forgotten that our own God has given us another name by which He now call us! Isaiah 65:15
We are JEHOVAH'S WITNESSES! Isaiah 43:10-12

The name Christians doesn't have any sound meaning anymore so please don't be offended, i meant to say "in the midst of JEHOVAH'S WITNESSES, smoking is as evil as Fornication and Adultery.

So no JWs can come out to speak proudly in support of smoking.

May you have PEACE! smiley

udomma1005:

Who do you really refer to as "ourselves" because I'm a Christian but beg to differ from your point of view?
If you find something or someone irritating to your being, you do well to avoid it rather than pass assuming myths in lieu of all. Smoking is not sin! While younger, the Irish and Portuguese reverend fathers we met were basically chronic smokers while still propagating evangelism relentlessly. A lot of people were converted to Christianity, anyway.
It isn't everyone that smokes in uncompleted buildings neither do they go nude after smoking. Respect the rights of others, live and let's live. I had a lecturer who was a bad arse smoker. He was running about a pack (20 sticks) in less than a 2 hour class,we thought he would die before we do graduate grin. But alas, a lot of lecturers have died through accidents, village winch, medical complications and sorts but our smoky J is hale & hearty as at last month i bumped into him in Port Harcourt.
Let's learn to mind our darm businesses and live let others live too.

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. undecided

Smoking is not a sin because Jesus Christ never gave us rules about smoking being a sin. undecided

Smoking is instead considered a moral issue and this by society and by extension government of men. undecided

oh, to you smoking is not a sin right?

This isn't about me but about God’s Law... He decides what Sin is and what is not sin. undecided

Now, according to God, smoking is not a sin - it cannot defile you or make you unclean or unholy/ unacceptable to God - Matthew 15 vs 10 - 20. undecided

I didn't say that the Bible said anything. undecided

What instead matters is what God says since His Word, not your bible, is Law and according to God's Law, Jesus Christ, it is not what we eat or ingests that defiles us, makes us unclean or unholy for God's use - Matthew 15 vs 10 - 20 and Mark 7 vs 1 - 23. undecided

which law? Where can we find this law?

The Bible is a book that is is a compendium of books. You can easily and individually download each of the books contained in your Bible as separate units... for example, there are copies out there of the Gospel according to Matthew for those who wish to access that book. undecided

And when I quoted to you from the Book called the Gospel according to Matthew, I didnt quote the Pharisees, nor did I quote Judas. I quoted the one who is the Word of God, Jesus Christ, to you. undecided

If the Word out of the Mouth of God Himself does not agree with you, that is your choice. Majority of those who claim to be Christians even today have an aversion for the Words of Jesus Christ, so you are not alone in claims to believe yet outrightly rejecting His Truth. undecided

Matthew 15 vs 10-20 and Mark 7 vs 1 - 23 is where Jesus Christ gives you the answers you seek. If Jesus Christ's answer is not good enough, then I am afraid you are on your own. undecided

Away, Satan !

Always trying to spin cobwebs of confusion !

Say a little right, slip in a lot wrong... just like your father, the devil.

Earliler you implied Jesus said it's okay to drink poison !
But Jesus did not say that.
He said "...and if they drink anything deadly, it will by no means hurt them;" (Mark 16:18 NKJV).
Obviously no one should dring poison ON PURPOSE, as you implied would be okay.
Jesus was saying that those Believers who happen to ingest poison BY ACCIDENT, God will protect.

And always trying to pretend that Jesus IS God's Law.
Jesus kept God's Law.
Jesus tells us to keep God's Law.
Jesus IS NOT God's Law Himself.
I don't say this for your evil sake, I only say it for others who might be duped by your perversion and your wretchedness.

Shall I once again point out that previously you tried to slyly suggest pills to a woman for something that didn't need pills; she saw through your evil and escaped, but God saw everything, and you will be held to account unless you repent.

But obviously, you're still the same evil person as you were then.

The Lord rebuke Kobojunkie, always twisting and distorting to try catch another victim in his devil-laden web.

SHAME ON Kobojunkie !

Again, the Lord rebuke Kobojunkie !

Do NOT listen to Kobojunkie ! He's a devil ! A wolf in a bad sheep costume !

Yes, smoking is indeed a sin.

It is murder of the self, breaking Commandment #6, "You shall not murder," which includes all types of ending human life - abortion, actual murder of someone else, suicide, euthanasia... and much more, including all knowingly unsafe or risky behaviors.

One's body temple is a gift to them from God, and it is indeed a sin to knowingly abuse it with poisons like smoking.

The flesh is weak, but the Spirit is willing.

Your own Spirit knows smoking is a bad and dangerous habit, based in rebellion against what is Good and Lovely and Right and True.

Keep the Truth.
Keep Jesus.
Read and learn the Gospels of Matthew, Mark, Luke, and John in a real Bible (like the NKJV-New King James Version or the KJV-King James Version, NOT a late-model deceitful Bible like the ERV-Easy to Read Version).
And then do what Jesus teaches... including repenting, forgiving, and sinning no more, by keeping God's Commandments... the Ten Commandments which are based on the Two Most Important Commandments (Love for God and others).

I wish you well. Keep the Lord.

dont be stupid, marijuana is very very good for your health,
its intake is very medicinal, just like your ugu and saint leaf, do you smoke ugu, or saint leaf?
Try smoking saint leaf, you ll die instantly,
so, whats the point?
Smoking any leaf makes the chemical component too powerful, thus dangerous to our health,
of which when we cook that same leaf, it would have no harmful effect on us.
taking it through blazzing or smoking is what is wrong, that method of administering it is whats wrong.
You can cook it with your food, or add its raw leaves, you ll be fine....

haddeylium:


Firstly, Smoking is a degrading action that harms and defiles a person’s body. Paul reminded the Corinthian that Christians must cleanse themselves of ‘every defilement of the flesh’.

“2 Corinthians 7:1 Therefore, since we have these promises, beloved ones, let us cleanse ourselves of every defilement of flesh and spirit, perfecting holiness in the fear of God”

It's a common knowledge that smoking is very addicting. It contains nicotine acts as a stimulant as well as a depressant. Smoking delivers nicotine to the brain quickly and repeatedly.


Smoking is lethal and being enslaved to any lethal habit that enslaves someone is not the best way to give your ‘all’ to almighty God.
Smoking kills at a faster rate than coronavirus. Averagely, 6millons people die every year because of this habit.

God teaches us to have a proper view of our life, our body, and our faculties. His Son, Jesus, pointed to this when he said:

“You must love Jehovah your God with your whole heart and with your whole soul and with your whole mind.” Matthew 22:37

Clearly, God wants us to make good use of our life and body and to treat them with respect.

If you want to learn about the true God and his promises and what he has done for us. Even, tips on how to overcome the addiction (if any). Visit JW.ORG
Romans 14:1-23

As for the one who is weak in faith, welcome him, but not to quarrel over opinions. One person believes he may eat anything, while the weak person eats only vegetables. Let not the one who eats despise the one who abstains, and let not the one who abstains pass judgment on the one who eats, for God has welcomed him. Who are you to pass judgment on the servant of another? It is before his own master that he stands or falls. And he will be upheld, for the Lord is able to make him stand. One person esteems one day as better than another, while another esteems all days alike. Each one should be fully convinced in his own mind.
