Is Smoking Marijuana A Sin? Christian Perspective!

Your answer lays in: Matthew 15:11

...as i said in Eden ,who told you ,you were naked? only animals with souls and without the spirit need written laws... for we with the spirit have them written upon our hearts and we have existed before the creation..we incarnate into temporary shells to learn from the creation we helped create long ago...let me guess,most of you have forgotten this and believed the lie of the soul and dont see all as fellow creators learning from the creation..

...that's only a small guide book,the answer to all things are within us ,for the kingdom of god is within us..love your neighbor as you love yourself...if you dont love your neighbor,you dont love yourself..if you dont love your neighbor, pick up the stones and hit yourself in the face with them because you dont love yourself..work on yourself first before you try to work on your neighbor..ask yourselves ,do you bring into the temple of god ,that which the guidebook asked everyone to bring into it...do you treat your body as the temple of god and not bring filth into it? that which you bring into the temple of god will also go outward from the temple of god...choose whom your temple is dedicated to, god or Satan within,love or hate?..there aren't any fences to sit on. ..ask yourselves,who judges what you bring into your temple,god or the world?

Funny how no one in this thread is petitioning against the use of anti-depressants and other synthetically manufactured psychotropic medications that actually change your brain chemistry and can make you prone to suicidal thoughts & harming youreslf - but when a natural and raw plant with PROVEN medicinal and healing qualities that has never caused a single death in the history of its use - it's in the context of sinning.

So alcohol, cigarettes, coffee, and anti-depressants = not sinning
marijuana = sinning

?????

You've been conditioned/programmed to accept things that your society/government tells you are okay, and conditioned to reject things that your government/society tells you are bad. It's as simple as that.

Anyone who has sincerely explored the qualities and effects of the cannabis plant with an open and objective mind would never speak about it in the context of 'sinning'.

When you stand before God he will be concerned with two things: how much did you love him, and how much did you love others. If it doesn't interfere with these two things, God will not care at all about it.

It was paper that kept weed from being legal way back when; why kill a tree if you can harvesst in six months without depleting the nitrogen in the soil?


Now its the oxy pharm that would die if weed, herb, marijuana and lucifer's seed were legal.

If you really love one in your life he is expecting part of you to hate him.

Wrong, you ignorant fool. Do some research before you make a ridiculous claim. We have cannabinoid receptors, BUT NOT FOR THC! THC is a completely unnatural substance to the human body. It's pretty sad that you potheads continue to use the same worn out old arguments that have already been proven wrong. Simply laughable.

Are you high as you're writing this? I mean, wow, that was unnaturally stupid.

jesus turned water into new wine .thats about as strong as grape juice.alcohal wise?.

The bible mention drinking wine and making the heart happy.but I believe the real issue is that we covet our marijuana.the sqeaky clean people that put people down for matrijuana use ara judging.It has been wrongly judged.jesus said tha a harlot will surely enter heaven before the Pharisees and sadducees.It would be better if we didn't smoke but I don't believe it will prevent your salvation.what is bad for one person isn't necessarily bad for the next.Two guys get the same sports car. One isn't tithing and drives like a maniac and uses his ride to pick up babes.The other tithes drives the speed limit and dosent use it for a babe magnet.the first guy is driving a sin mobile.Put Jesus first everyday and if u can't quit try not to covet it.Also I work in a hospital and alcohol abuse is half of our patients.

"And as Moses lifted up the serpent in the wilderness, even so must the Son of man be lifted up:"

John 3:14 KJV

Do you understand what this passage means?

I had the same question and came across this helpful article. Don't let these people tell you you shouldn't have faith. I truly admire your faith in Jesus Christ

Let integrity and uprightness preserve me, for I wait for You
Psalm 25:21

You stupid fool if we didn't have thc receptors how would you get high from THC.
Cannabinoids don't get you high idiot!

Ahhh Geez!!! Shit like this just sickens me! I was once in your shoes per se! Fear! Fear! Fear! One of the best ways to control people. Do you really believe in a loving God? Than ask yourself, would he really send you to hell for something he created. Just keep an open mind kid and keep searching and asking God to really show you the truth without the fear!

Would you please care to elaborate. Please!

It is really refreshing to hear your witness and your faith in Christ - obviously you have matured and he is calling you to a deeper walk with him. I can only pray God gives you an answer to your question - I do know that the word says that for a man to know what he should do, yet still not do it - for him, that is sin - along with the other commandments we are given, obviously, and the guide of our conscience, if we are truly seeking him with our whole heart. I do not know if I am in the place to answer your question for you, but here is my advice:

We are to be sober-minded, for one

Secondly, anything that will cause our brother to stumble, we are to consider them first

Thirdly, if it is something of the "old man", then maybe it is something that needs to be let go of?

Drugs are considered a form of sorcery in the scriptures

From my experience, God can give us all we need without us having to alter our state of mind with a substance, and to say that he cannot or claim that we need something more is to say that he is not what he is - able to fulfill our every need. I found this as my highest, clearest motivation/strength to quit smoking (cigarettes) - I found that for me to say I HAD to or NEEDED to and couldn't quit (not that you are saying that, just sharing) was for me to understate the limitless power I knew I have in Christ. I knew I really was totally free from anything I wanted to be free of, I just had to want it, and I did. I couldn't deny his power or his sovereignty over my life and everything in it - he is limitless and has proven that to me.

Whatever we give to the Lord, is not lost, it comes back to us sevenfold - that has been my life experience for 45 years now - he rewards his children well

So, maybe try giving it up for a week, spend that time doing something different to relax, maybe some Christian music or read God Calling or God at Eventide, spend time talking to God about your day or asking him questions, sharing with him your thoughts and dreams.

Hope that gives you some type of help in considering this issue. I will pray for you to have wisdom and clarity and to continue to grow in him according to his purpose for you - it is clear to me you are called and will see amazing things happen in your life if you stay on this path. Try this, and see what happens: Every morning, when you awake, just turn your mind and heart toward the Lord for a moment, and just put yourself in his hands for that day, pray this simple prayer, "Lord, use me today - help me to see others through your eyes and love them with your love". This type of prayer, said with a true heart, will not be denied. Amazing things await...
