2 | Smoking | 1 Cor 3:17 | carolisblessed | 176640 | ||
No there is nothing in the Bible that actually says "Don't smoke" but God doesn't want us to have a durty temple (body) and if your friend wants to get picky, let him know it's left up to his own conscience Titus 1:15 Unto the pure all things are pure: but unto them that are defiled and unbelieving is nothing pure; but even their mind and conscience is defiled. 16 They profess that they know God; but in works they deny him, being abominable, and disobedient, and unto every good work reprobate 1Cor 3:16 Know ye not that ye are the temple of God, and that the Spirit of God dwelleth in you? 17 If any man DEFILE the temple of God, him shall God destroy; for the temple of God is holy, which temple ye are. 18 Let no man deceive himself. If any man among you seemeth to be wise in this world, let him become a fool, that he may be wise.Hope this helps Carol |

Carolis blessed, I field allot of these same questions,especially from my youngest son. He'll tell me,well dad I guess I'm going to hell because I smoke or I'm going to hell because I drink. You'll get things like this and a variety of others thrown your way. And just like with my son you gotta tell em They are going to hell because they dont have a relationship with God. John 14:6 Jesus Christ is the only way any of us is going to have a relationship with God. This is what we need to be driving home with people. In Christ, lionheart |
