Use of marijuana hasn’t traditionally been a “gray area” for Christians. The drug was illegal, so it was off-limits to those who are “subject to the governing …
I use cannabis oil to treat symptoms of Attention Deficit Disorder. Of course, with it containing THC, it's comparable to using marijuana. It has been nothing but beneficial to my life. It's allowed me to focus and engage with people, where as normally, I'm quite introverted. I feel better, mentally, emotionally and even spiritually. Due to my ADD, no book, including the Bible, has been able to hold my attention long enough for me to get any benefit from it. However, with THC, I'm able to read without being distracted by my own mind.
Keep in mind, god created sexual desires at the height of hormonal need when he knew you'd be least able to resist the temptation. He is trying so hard to make you fail and burn in screaming agony for all eternity with no hope of salvation. He does this because he loves you.
Even when I was younger I never used weed to disconnect or flee from anything it was always a thing of a social situation, so I don't know how much I follow on the idea that it's always an escape or disconnect from community. I'd also say alcohol is far more intoxicating and causes far more loss of control, even if weed gets you intoxicated quicker and with less, alcohol will end up getting you far more wasted overall, to where you lose control of not only your judgement but your body. I quit for many years.. and only started again when I had a medical need to for an inflammatory autoimmune disease. I use it with 2 other prescriptions just to keep the inflammation down. I know I'm told to be sober minded but I'm conflicted because when I'm in lots of pain I am also not really sober and focused because the pain takes all my attention and focus away. It's a dilemma with me. I've tried just the CBD tinctures and the like and it just didn't work. I need some THC along with a high dose of CBD to get the reduction of the pain, swelling, purple skin and HEAT.. I know it's not really like being burned but my skin actually dies and peels off sometimes when it gets that bad, it's like blistering. But it's hard, I feel like I can't go to church even if my condition was good enough to drive to one and walk in.
Lets take it a step further, what truly sober mindedness is…. When we consume too much alcohol,tv, music, video games, mobile devices, PC's, pharmaceutical medicines and foods of all kinds it can in general alter your original state of mind of not being sober minded. As a patient with colon cancer, I too have had my battles with using marijuana. It does not alter my mind and neither do I abuse it. I take it all to to Father God and have a deep relationship with Him. Just think about it, when people are sick they are mostly dependent on things such as Nyquil, Benadryl, Pain Relievers etc… which are all derived from man made chemicals but to the worldly societies marijuana (which is simply a plant) is worse? I feel that people need to respect the usage of it and also not allow it to overtake your mainframe, your path and or relationship with The LORD! God bless siblings!🌈🕊🙏🏽💯👑🔥♥️
Theres a good talk on this, youtube "Jesse romero whats wrong with marijuana." He said surgeon general studied brains And noticed weed lowered I Q,made people dumb and so did porn.check it out.id like to no what u guys think.he says pharmakaya- means pharmacy and book of enoch tells how demons show humans how to extract drugs from plants.and that we overlooked passages of bible that mention weed is bad."
This is why I can’t stand christianity . Rules and regulations . It doesn’t let me be me . I rather smoke pot than become spiritually proud. I have bi-polar disorder so tell me why I can’t use it to sleep / cope ? It’s more than a wish and a prayer . Like praying for someone’s limb to grow out . God isn’t going to take away my bi polar disorder so sorry y’all I have to cope the best way I know how
Kenah Bosm. It is was always in the bible. One of 4 ingredients in the oil that christened Christ. Also used in the bible stories of healing with said oil.
Hold up I smoke weed so will this get me to hell I love god and obey some of his rules and want to obey them all sooner or later. .ps I’m so high rn🤦🏽♂️
Why would it take away my severe pain and yet leave me alert and know what is going on. I have all bad teeth. Tremendous pain. Imagine all your teeth hurt at once. A friend offered me some Cannibus. Even though I am a Christian and love the Lord. I smoked some. My pain went from 1,000 down to 0. That is God. No man made medicine can do that unless though an I.V. I am on the max dose of Oxycontine and Morphine and those did not even soften this pain. I don't think God would be mad using an herb that relieved many illnesses and not knocked me out.
We know that it is a sin to be intoxicated with alcohol, but that drinking in moderation is allowed. But nobpdy smokes pot in moderation—the whole idea is to get high as a kite.
While it is encouraging to see two homosexual men given a Christian platform to reach people, I find this particular message disturbing and harmful. Alcohol destroys mental health, it is literally a depressant- While it's been proven time and time again that populations with high levels of cannabis users show zero increase in mental illness rates compared to areas with virtually zero cannabis users. To suggest people can get moderately drunk more easily than moderately high with cannabis is as inaccurate as it is dangerous- That is the kind of thinking that gets people killed by drunk drivers. Cannabis "Keneh bosem" is mentioned in the bible, what, 5 times? Jesus used it in the holy anointing oil. How much more of a thumbs up do you need? If the legalization effort has proven anything, it is that this plant PROMOTES unity and strengthens communities. Join a cannabis bible study group and give it another shot.
Two things with Pot. One is do not become a drunkard with it, do not depend or smoke till your God given faculties' are off. and Two do not put anything above God! If you are having a problem with it, do not do it – it then is a sin. Moderation
I have only watched a minute and a half and I have a couple of issues. It is a DIFFERENT type of (as you call it), intoxication. It DOES NOT take over your mind, like alcohol does, does not affect your body the same either. I know from experience. I will probably NEVER touch alcohol again because of pot. I can reduce the number of pain pills I have to take because of pot. I can think CLEARER through the pain because of pot….
I'd rather take thc for my physical pains because of work. But if your weak minded thc can warp your mind. But right now I hate the feeling . But at the same time negative thoughts run rapid when I'm stoned. Like guilty I feel like. But each time I repent the anxiety slowly goes away and I'm with God. I feel him more. Idk maybe we can get closer to him in a altered state of mind? It's funny it's an arguement even when I was in the occult world … so its crazy.
I think people who become changed by smoking do it too much. It’s like if you drank a few cups of wine a day you’d change from it and slowly become an alcoholic. Drinking everyday is not good and neither is smoking everyday. Do it once in awhile and in moderation and your fine. Even being buzzed with alcohol your mind is not the clearest. Do some reading into the meaning of sober back in the times of the Bible it doesn’t mean actually being “sober” as we use the word today. You can’t actually drink alcohol and be “sober” so that should make you think there’s a different translation to that word that we use today
I use marijuana to help with my genetic chronic physical disease and my other chronic health conditions. I tried pain killers and it never helped my pain, it only barely helped when I took too many at once and mostly made me feel more tired than I already do. They're also really addictive. I was told by my neurologist that I'm too sensitive to chemicals and medication. I've tried other things like acupuncture and chiropractor, but it's too expensive. I do physical therapy but it only helps so much and some of my dislocations are permanent. Surgery and therapy will not fix it. I pray Alot for God to heal my pain and try to go as long as possible without using. I think if your goal is to medicate yourself it's fine but if you're doing it with the intention to get high, isolate, and abuse the use of it, it can be bad and even become an idle. It's the same as abusing the use of wine, food, internet. As long as you're using it responsibilly and in small amounts its okay. I also believe God wouldn't mind edibles, and topicals, oils, but I don't think He likes the idea of smoking. Edibles and topicals are definitely more expensive at times so I would say the next best option is getting a marijuana cartridge and vaping but if you must absolutely smoke and you have no other options available make sure you really limit it and try to avoid using ciggarellos, or anything that contains tobbaco and use hemp wraps or rolling papers instead.
Weed brings ppl together … i think it really depends how ppl are using it and why which is different for everyone which is I think part of the reason the church doesn’t have direct answer yes or no
What if it helps with your sexual Intimacy with your spouse only! Only in the bedroom, like if you are older for medical Purposes (with your spouse)not Recreational?
I am a new believer and one thing I will say is that before I came to God, weed was my god. I smoked at least half a gram of wax every day for about a year and I had been smoking since I was 15. they were talking in the video about there being a functional high, and weather or not that exists. I will say that even though I drove myself to work high and smoked through my shift, I was functioning on the outside but internally I felt like a stagnant being. The only thing that blessed me in any way for years was weed. God wants us to focus on his will for us and weed is tricky. I thought I was accomplishing so much through that time, but as soon as I ran out of wax I realized the only thing I accomplished was getting high. Don’t let lil Wayne trick you. Weed IS BAD and you need to remember that God wants us to have a clear mind to serve him. Satan wants to use weed to pull us away from God and his people. Stay sober. I learned the hard way.

This is one of the best talks on the usage of marijuana I have seen…thanks.
It is Addicting period! Ur brain wants more and more! I literally have dreams about smoking
Every one is different for me! When i smoke it all i can think about is drinking
U nailed it! Makes u Draw inward! Unhinge from Reality and Relationships! Thats what it did to me! She is a jealous Bitch! She wants u all to Herself
In the begining God created the universe with you somewhere in His mind or in his mind

ALCOHOL DOES THE SAME THING

It is great for many illnesses. Including PTSD, pain, anxiety and depression. I am never not of sound mind.

Again, sound mind? But alcohol is ok? Thanks, may God bless you and grant you wisdom
Wow, I HATE toking alone. Nice story, isolated as hell! Lol
