    As a Christian who has dealt with spiritual warfare all my life, 100% weed was making me more susceptible to the devils attacks. I’m still facing the repercussions of my usage now that I’m sober, my mind feels changed (honestly significantly more dumb for lack of a better word) and more numb to emotions. Weed took who God created me to be and altered the way I think, act, and speak. Weed was used as a coping mechanism and now I’m sober and the memories I was trying to run away from still exist, so exactly as you said Eric, the side effects are not worth it for a temporary solution to what you’re trying to run from.

      What is weed? How is it different from medicinal marijuana? It's not, his argument for that is invalid. "Smoke the herb and it reveals you to yourself" you say you were revealed devil attacks? Don't do those please ;) love you In Christ as one. Namaste 🕉

      Me too I quit over a year ago after 15 years of daily 1:1 THC:CBD MCT oil cannabis use. However, don't regret, embrace who you were, what you learned, and who you are now, just let it go, and your body & mind will heal. Cannabis atrophies the hippocampus which is involved in short term memory and dreams. It does put holes in the aura that allows spiritual parasites to attack us. Cannabis activates and basically overclocks the lower three chakras.

      I found myself in pretty close agreement with the speaker, and I understand your point too. I am a Christian who has a few serious medical conditions and cannabis works better for me than the other available options. And I've been through the gambit of drugs and non-drug therapies. I too have suffered a lot of spiritual attacks in my life, and when I first started using cannabis for medicinal purposes I did notice the increase in the ability for the devil to mess with my head. In fact I feel that THAT is the biggest danger to Christians using it, more so than the physical side effects of long term/excessive use. But I had to trust God to teach me how to handle and manage it and how to use it in a way that He was ok with. For me though, Cannabis amplifies my emotions, and amplifies whatever state I'm already in or leaning towards, good or bad. But through a little trial and error I learned how to control it most of the time to where it actually puts my fleshly nature to death a lot more than I ordinarily could and weakens my fleshly nature for a while, making it easier to obey scripture and resist temptations. I do believe that cannabis can affect our spiritual sensitivity in a broad way, making us more open to perceive or receive communications and clarity from BOTH sides, and that's usually what scares most Christians off and makes them think cannabis is a sin automatically after one or a few tries. But the reality is God MEANT for it to affect our minds the way it does in a sliding scale, where lower doses are fine but anyone who tries to push the dosage up too much will get smacked by it with a wake up call and a stern warning to get it together or cut it out completely. The benefits God intended from it only come from responsible doses, but God will still protect people if they accidentally overdo it sometime and have a frightening experience. Medical users get used to the effects and can navigate it without impairment but the devil's biggest threat regarding cannabis is messing with the heads of folks who accidentally took too much because they weren't being cautious and responsible enough and them being so overwhelmed by the experience that they don't know how to handle it and the devil is able to terrorize them for a little while in that state.

It is a "deadening " of the mind after one hit (for those that would compare it to a glass of wine)- for a reason. The great news is Jesus loves and invites as a we are, but He will not LEAVE us as we are.... you can be free of this as the Spirit works from the inside out.

    I don't know if it is a sin or not, but I was an extremely heavy user of weed, very addicted and I tried to quit many times over the last 30 years. I was trying to fill some hole that I didn't know what it was. It was only last year I accepted Jesus, and on day one, I have never touched it again and have never looked back. Thank you Jesus!

Last but not least when im high it makes me think more about God and less about this world. But unfortunately smoking is not good for your lungs lol so stick to other methods or even Vaporizing the smoke through a Volcano or any Vorporizing method. May Jesus Christ our lord and savior reign in all the hearts who seek him. ✌️🕊

    @cwalker688 Před 15 dny

    I used to use this verse to justify my smoking habits
    Genesis 9:3 - Every moving thing that liveth shall be meat for you; even as the green herb have I given you all things.
    And this is from someone who smoked every day, all day for 12 years.
    It’s once the migraines started coming from my constant smoking and would only subside when I finally laid down smoking weed, that I had to really be honest with myself and say that this isn’t the highest place that God wants me.
    The verse doesn’t say, I gave you all the herbs for meat(meaning food) and you can smoke too… I’m not opposed to ingesting marijuana as I believe this is backed biblically.
    The issue for me that arose is everytime I would go to “edibles only”, I would inevitably be dissatisfied with the lack of “high” that was produced in comparison to smoking and would always resort back to smoking sooner than later.

    You came into this with a biased opinion. Did not even use scripture to back the potential counter-argument.
    Genesis 1:12 - And the earth brought forth grass, and herb yielding seed after his kind, and the tree yielding fruit, whose seed was in itself, after his kind: and God saw that it was good.
    Genesis 1:29 - And God said, Behold, I have given you every herb bearing seed, which is upon the face of all the earth, and every tree, in the which is the fruit of a tree yielding seed; to you it shall be for meat.
    Genesis 9:3 - Every moving thing that liveth shall be meat for you; even as the green herb have I given you all things.
    And we all know Jesus drank wine, which I would hope we can all agree Marijuana is a better option than. I believe it should be treated as below, do none of it in excess.
    Ephesians 5:18 - And be not drunk with wine, wherein is excess; but be filled with the Spirit;

      Meat, as in food. It doesn’t say to smoke and inhale it.
      This is coming from someone who smoked all day, every day for 12 years. And I used to say the same verses. If your just consuming it as edibles, by all means, but smoking is where I say it’s no longer backed biblically.

    Yes as a lifetime Christian me and my friends have always smoked and it never has been a problem serving the lord. Cannabis as is the real name not weed that sounds racist. lol! The only thing that helped my friends seizures was cannabis. Your type busted him for growing his own medicine. He was one of the best Christian men I've known. He volunteered in the community and was loved by many. Most never knew he did cannabis because if he let them know they would judge him a sinner. Another friend of mine had Parkinson's disease. The only thing that helped him was cannabis. Please stop this negative leaning we have had millions locked in cages over your kind of Holier than thou type negativity. I remember when I was young most of the church members smoked cigarettes but nobody wanted them to go to jail. Today most are obese addicted to sugar that destroy the body and the mind but nobody wants them jailed. In the latest studies cannabis was considered to be nothing compared to alcohol but people always think they are the same kind of thing. Not at all. However anything can be abused doesn't make it bad.
