Subject: question to smoke pot or not |
Bible Note: Dear Jeshuafreak, The short answer to this question is "no". For this reason: Consider all the things that are legal under the laws of the land. Abortion. Pornography. Having children outside the bounds of marriage. All these are legal by man's standards, but not by God's standards. I posted earlier to Hank(7/15/02, 2:55pm), that in Galatians 5:20, when the Apostle Paul refers to "witchcraft", that word comes from the Greek, "pharmakeia", meaning--in short--drugs, the use of which leave us open to unclean spirits. I have seen first hand the effects of marijuana use. Don't let anyone tell you it doesn't lead to other things. My stepson started smoking it when he was 15, and within a year he was into drinking, acid, huffing. Anything to get a better high than the one before. That is why we are admonished to avoid this type of "witchcraft". God is my Strength and Power, and He makes my way perfect!! 2nd Samuel 22 |
