Greetings Fran! There really aren't any specific verses. There are a few references in Greek to the use of drugs, but they are usually associated with sorcery. This would fall into the category of applying spiritual principles to an issue. We know the following: 1) We are to be moderate in all things. 2) We are to be self-controlled. 3) We are to be led by the Spirit. 4) We are to be witnesses. All of these above points are incompatible with the use of any kind of recreational drug. I hope this helps! Your Brother in Christ, Tim Moran |

In addition, -Rom 13:1ff tells us to follow the law of the land. The law is clear about drugs, including alcohol. -1Co 6:19 states that our body is the temple of the Holy Spirit. -1Co 8:9 says even tho you can do it in good conscience, don't if you cause other to stumble. -1Ti 5:23 does says a little wine is okay. BUT, do not abuse the Scripture or wine. Steve |

Greetings Steve, Excellent points! Though I would question the 1 Tim. 5:23 passage, since there is evidence that many in Asia Minor used a thick grape jam which they mixed in the water to get rid of the acid. However, your points are excellent! Your Brother in Christ, Tim Moran |
