Bible Question: Is smoking a sin? Cigars? Cigarettes? Cloves? How about Marijuana? Whats your opinion. Can you back it up with scripture? |
Bible Answer: Are you truly thinking of your body as a temple of the Holy Spirit? Access to a holy God should create in us a desire to be holy people. This doesn't mean you can't smoke and he holy. I just believe God would want us to respect our bodies and the medical evidence suggests that you're not doing you body any favors by smoking. |
