1 | question to smoke pot or not | Gen 1:12 | zztoaa | 54809 | ||
Hi, again. Being an introvert it helps me to stop and think of a response. I believe the two people who replied missed the point of my comments. I obviously didn't say them right. Since i am essentially anonymous on this forum, I can tell you that I am an AA member. Having said that, I add the disclaimer that i do not speak for AA, i speak only of my own experience. My experience personally is that as i clean the inside of my cup as AA suggests in their 12 steps, the outside gets clean as well. for my friends who are acting out in a homosexual lifestyle, i believe my job is to help them clean the inside of the cup. the outside will take care of itself. When i was drinking it would have done me no good for someone to come to me and tell me that my excessive drinking is a sin (note the word excessive. If Christians can smoke cannabis, then i guess we can drink alcohol). But AA taught me that my drinking was only a symptom of deeper problems, problems that i must take responsibility for. When i took responsibility for them, i no longer needed or wanted to drink. I see the same thing can go for homosexuality. (although the Bible does talk about eunuchs and i am not sure where they fit into this whole thing) Go to the root of the sin nature, the rest will be taken care of. I hope that clarifies better what i was trying to say. thanks for being willing to discuss this. by the way, i replied because it was suggested that we needed to be open to such discussions. |

"Go to the root of the sin nature, the rest will be taken care of. " Yes this is very true. We are changed from the inside out. By the washing of the Word. -Jeshuafreak |

Thanks, Jeshuafreak. Someone said it takes two wings to fly. they were talking about our right and left wing politics. but i think it also stands for our 'Political' differences in the Body of Christ. We need the "right-wingers" to hold up the standard. The "left-wingers" focus on the inside. We will meet in the middle and follow the Head. zztoaa |

It is not for me to say about the left wingers. some of my favorite Christians are left wing in their politics. I think i have some of each in me. zztoaa |
