marijuana is the only “drug” that is not chemcially made or tampered with. its the only “drug” that is impossible to overdose on. its the only “drug” that has many benefits and little to no negative effects. God created it. and only God is capable of making such a “drug”. Us humans have made drugs, but all of them can kill you. the only reason marijuana is looked down upon is because it is considered illegal, just like alcohol was during prohibtion but look at alcohol now. i feel like if marijuana had been legalized years ago we wouldnt be having this discussion.

Thanks for the comment. God can use all sorts of ways to bring us to Himself. The important thing is that we follow Christ, we learn from Scripture, and we seek to please and honor Him. As we have stated in the past, this site is not anti-marijuana. But neither is it pro-marijuana. There are reasons enough to be concerned about marijuana use, and they are not all based on conspiracy theories of people who want to make money on other products and take away happiness and freedom. But the issue for Christians is the call in Scripture to be sober and watchful. We want to be counted among those who are worthy when Jesus returns for us. And the bigger issue is that we want to love our God with all of our heart in truth by the things we do, and not simply be the feelings we have. The test of faith is not what we do when we have feelings favorable towards God, but what do we do when our feelings are contrary to God. Genuine faith, in those moments, makes choices to walk with God, even when walking with God seems hard. May the Lord Jesus and His Spirit guide you into greater holiness, peace, and joy in service to Him.

Well King James Version of the Bible Isaiah Chapter. 6 Clearely shows how to get baptisted by fire (marijuana out of a hooka) the train(smoke) from the mouth piece. Tongs moving Coal. they are smokin a hooka and unclean lips. duh. Jesus Is a Role-model how to live your life but he did not die for our sins. Our long lost Tribe of Zion been has been buried and trampled on for 2 centuries… If you notice Zion on is coming back even though the people representing is doing it for medical and selfish reasonings. God is the energy the made the world and the universe and matter itself. God Gave us GANGA You Humans made the Alchohol and all the other drugs. marijuana is Rescourceful. All these trees we destroyed for resources was a Lie and for Finacial Benifits the hempcould of made What we needed the wood for paper toothpicst ect . on top of that it could of been cheaper and easier to have resources for clothes, fuel, more oxygen, healthier enviroment. and even out beat plastic.. it was all for financial gain. and all that had nothing to do with getting high…we could of still at least kept the hemp and prevented from all these animals getting killd

quote: “Marijuana and other drugs are not necessary for life”

You lie, wench, and you bear false witness. I charge you before God, in the square for the people to see and bear witness. Let me speak.

Marijuana cures cancer, and nothing else known to man does. All the research you so lovingly refer too in fact bears that out. More than 6,000,000 family members worldwide are going to die from cancer this year alone, and the only thing provided by god that would help them, that would restore them, you would deny them to let them waste away and perish to corruption, because you are false, you have no compassion, no mercy for the sick, you are one of those people that can justify any foul deed, indifferent to the sufferings in your own flock, your own kind, so good shepherd you are not, enlightened you are not, and against gods plan do you stand.
You will know them by their fruits.
This is not gods way. The sick have been provided for, it is his will, his mercy to man, and you must stand aside in this. The tree of knowledge is forbidden, but not the tree of life.

As a fellow believer, I need some help from you all. Around a year ago, I first smoked marijuana. I never had really thought about God at all at this time. However, while high, I literally was filled with the spirit, and within the next couple of weeks, I was a believer. I know this is extremely rare. All my friends use marijuana to “have fun” or “escape their problems.” For me it is extremely the opposite. When I am high, it gives me extreme clarity and I see the truly important things in my life I am neglecting. I was not reading the Bible much, and was putting family off, but once high, I really evaluated these aspects of my life and literally cried and repented. Once sober, nothing had changed. I still had these convictions that had come upon me while I was high. This marijuana I am sure has a spiritual aspect to it. Whether or not this is sent from Satan is what I am struggling to find out, but honestly, I truly believe that this weed helped me to be saved.

“In 10,000 on record no one has ever died from consuming marijuana.”

What are you trying to say?

“They said it causes cancer? Like Bill said, it actully helps in not getting it.”

Check this: http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC2516340/ Read the following quote from the discussion portion of the case study.

These studies, and our own, highlight the difficulties inherent in undertaking epidemiological research of the effects of cannabis. While it is important to interpret the findings in the context of these limitations, the balance of evidence would suggest a positive association between cannabis and lung cancer.

“After using and feeling the healing power . . .”

You mean the intoxicating power and the nice feeling that all your problems are gone . . .

“Now my message to the ones reading, dont even click the links ‘me’ Posted.”

So, your message to those interested in finding out the truth is, “Don’t even do your own research. Read the Bible, which says nothing about marijuana, and then make your decision.” I would agree with one part of your advice. Read the Bible. Find out what it says. Find out what it says about Jesus Christ. Make Him the focus of your attention. When you try to convince someone of healing power, convince them to get to know the Jesus who truly heals. Forget the temptation to give in to the pull of addictive, illegal drugs and seek after the One who will fulfill the deepest desires of your heart.

Ok, first off i want to say marijuana is a blessing. Not only does it help with many problems we face daily it is a great way to relax after a hard day of work. I’ve done my research, in 10,000 on record no one has ever died from consuming marijuana. They give this lovely plant (not Drug) to people with cancer to help them with eating. It helps depression, headaches, and many more issues to name. Basically im saying for u to sit there and say it is bad, is only because it is illegal. People viewed alcohol the same way when it was in prohibiton. They say it kills brain cells? Well actully they tested on monkeys using mask and they suffocated them. When suffocation takes place, brain cells are killed. They smoke DID NOT cause that. They said it causes cancer? Like Bill said, it actully helps in not getting it. If you would do some research “Me” and stop listening to things others say maybe you would have some knowledge. Note, im only 19, and I was raised to believe it was bad. After using and feeling the healing power, i did research to note that it is perfectly safe. Now my message to the ones reading, dont even click the links “me” Posted. Get your bible and read, and also look into watching a facts documentary and not a opinion based one, try it for yourself and injoy the “Gift from God”

Umm your sources are outdated, it not only does not cause ANY form of cancer, but has actually been found to inhibit cancer. Little more research, less “I know because I believe I’m right” please!

It was and is a natural, non toxic, plant/herb with countless medical properties.

Countless medical properties? What are they? And the list should be huge, seeing as the properties are countless. Did you know that smoking marijuana increases the possibility of testicular cancer?

http://alcoholism.about.com/od/pot/a/testicular.htm

Did you know that smoking marijuana may cause cancer?

http://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2009/06/090615095940.htm

Did you know that long-term use of marijuana negatively affects cognitive function?

http://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2010/11/101116104202.htm

Did you know that marijuana smoke contains higher levels of certain poisons than cigarette smoke?

http://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2007/12/071217110328.htm

Anyway, I don’t see marijuana as non-toxic, as you do.

. . . the fact remains that Cannabis is a natural (creation of God if you like) plant that has never caused a death, or any other kind of detrimental effect to human health. Is cannabis not a creation of God?

Yes, it’s a fact that God created cannabis and He also created hemlock. Do you eat hemlock? Do you smoke hemlock? It’s natural! So why don’t you eat it or smoke it? And marijuana has never caused a death or any other health problem for anyone? Are you serious? Check out the research on the negative health effects of the drug. It has many negative short-term effects as well as a variety of long-term effects. And in my own experience, I’ve seen people get in wrecks as a result of driving while high. I’ve seen that multiple times. So to say marijuana has never had a negative physical effect on anyone, ever–well, that’s a completely ridiculous statement.
