Bible Question: is marijuana against the bible |
Bible Answer: It is against the law. The bible tells us to obey the authorities He has placed over us so yes it is against the bible. You could be arrested and charged with an offense. You could lose your vehicle, your home, your reputation. There are some jobs you would not be able to pursue such as teaching, law enforcement even if not convicted. It is a mind-altering drug. We are told to be controlled by the Holy Spirit so again it is against the bible. Confess this sin to the Lord and He will help you overcome this temptation. Blessings - Val Phil 4:6 Be anxious for nothing, but in everything by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known to God. |
