I'm 25 years old i started smoking weed from age 13 till 22 I began smoking to cope with my mother being admitted into the hospital, and Grandfather, and my brother passingng away all in the same year. It was a really dark time in my life. Weed became my idol and I was addicted I even ventured off into sipping lean but by the grace and strength of God I gave up smoking weed and sipping lean 4 years ago.

Praying for you however I will say that consuming weed responsibility (meaning using it as sleep aid, a stress reliever, a mild social lubricant, etc.) is not a problem. It’s only a problem if it makes you not sober or is getting in the way of the rest of your life. You should look into CBD tho, it’s great for sleep, inflammation, and relaxation while not getting u high AT ALL. If cannabis is a problem for u definitely stay away from it but the plant has its uses so lets not try to demonize it ( not saying u were demonizing it, I’m just reminding everyone lol) GOD BLESS YALL

Weed is something I got immediate deliverance from once I became a Christian, almost two years ago. I used to smoke daily in order to cope with depression, anxiety, suicidal thoughts, etc. (which weed ultimately, made worse). I personally think if you have to habitually use something that alters your mind, there is something deeper behind it ...You’re seeking satisfaction, peace, validity, acceptance, etc. from something other than God Himself.

[@technoloverish]

Maybe, but do any of those things justify putting people who choose to smoke weed in jail for it? It's technically their body and ultimately their choice.

[@nathanhummel2665]

but what if you aren't seeking those things, because you already get it from God? For me, it's no different than taking an advil, only it's enjoyable and relaxing. It comes down to perception, because the bible doesn't say not to smoke weed and I don't believe the studies that say how bad it is. Gray areas, however, God will deliver us. The gray areas will be filled in and we will walk the correct path with Yahusha Ha'Mashiac (Jesus Christ).

[@nathanhummel2665]

@Timothy Coll oof that's a heavy statement... careful not to judge. Only God knows our hearts. I have no idea what to expect in heaven to.be honest, I just know that there will be no more pain, suffering, or agony and we will be forever with the Lord our God.

[@jhamilton1007]

I mean, he pretty much covered things like cigarettes when he said if there was anything in your life that you have trouble quitting for a while or at all. Whether it's weed, alcohol, porn, cigarettes, social media (which is a big one for me), and so on. If it is something you have trouble not doing, then it's an addiction.

[@ShalaynaLynise777]

Weed has become an addiction for me. I have Small Victories with overcoming smoking because I'll stop & fall into temptation🤦🏾‍♀️ My ultimate goal is to be completely WeedFree....I'm praying for that conviction

[@buffsoldierofchrist5907]

I smoked weed for almost 10 years and thought I was still a “Christian” let me tell you one day I prayed and asked God to show me if it’s bad. I started having panic attacks. So I stopped after stopping I began having more and more attacks and even voices in my head. The demons started fighting me. I cried and really gave my life to Christ and eventually got better in time. But let me tell you one thing smoking weed is for people who miss something in their life and also you open portals for demons trust me. It also makes you more vulnerable for false teachings and new age crap because i experienced some crazy supernatural stuff in my weed days. There are people who say smoking once in a while isn’t bad etc, those people don’t have Jesus in their life. You wanna get high? Get high on the love of God that’s a eternal feeling. Peace, love and blessings

[@B1zZaRr077]

So faith till the end you are calling cannabis demonic? How can it be demonic and open portals for demons? God created cannabis. He created us. He also created our bodies equipped with an endocannabinoid system. That's right! Our bodies were created to interact with cannabis.

[@B1zZaRr077]

end psychoactive is a term that was coined during the reefer madness days to scare people. If you have in fact consumed cannabis then you would know that it relaxes the mind and body. If you are tripping or seeing or hearing things then what you have consumed was not cannabis. It's also not addictive as I've seen others say on here. It's not. There are zero withdrawal symptoms from cannabis. If you think you are addicted then you are a person with an addictive mindset and again I say to you that we were created with the endocannabinoid system in our bodies and it wasn't built for just CBD because in order for CBD oil to be truly effective you need a full spectrum oil which means all the cannabinoids in the cannabis plant present. Please do some research. God created this for a reason and millions of folks benefit from it every day from physical ailments to PTSD!

[@B1zZaRr077]

@@faithtiltheend3044 are you saying heroin and cannabis are the same? I mean because they are polar opposites. The only thing they have in common is that they are a plant. Heroin is highly addictive and lethal even in small doses. Whereas cannabis isnt lethal at all. Not one death and overdose is medically impossible because the vital functions for the body are controlled in the brain stem and there arent any cannabinoid receptors on the brain stem.

[@tuckertillis]

I used to be a pot head myself. Here's why I don't smoke anymore. The difference with alcohol is Christians who are ok with it aren't drinking necessarily for the effects or getting effed up. It can be a regular part of the diet and be ok when not consumed in excess. Marajuna on the other hand is really only used when altering the state of mind. I used to enjoy smoking because it gave me new insights on things and gave me a new perspective. However I would rather my epiphanies and revelations come from God, prayer, meditating on the word, and revelation of the holy spirit. Now that I don't smoke, I look back and see the harm it does have on the spiritual life. You think you gain wisdom but really it's usually pretty stupid. You just think it's a good idea cause you're stoned. Also you get lazy and it gets harder to function in general. It's expensive habit when you include pipes and snacks and the weed itself. And usually you get tired a lot more easily. Weed hangovers are a thing, I don't care what anyone tells me. If you're looking for biblical places to go 1 Peter 5:8 Be sober, be vigilant; because your adversary the devil, as a roaring lion, walketh about, seeking whom he may devour (It's easier to fall for heresies and apostasy when your mind is altered) Ephesians 5:18 And do not get drunk with wine, for that is dissipation, but be filled with the Spirit (God is a much better source of inspiration than intoxication) Hope this helps!

That little girl probably didn't experience a second death or a bad judgement, but best believe that the person who carried it out already got their punishment dished out in the physical world, if he's still here, then he has the spiritual judgment to go through which may deny his eternal life.

The Bible does not mention marijuana. As bible teachers we must be specific when God is specific, and less specific where God is less specific. With that said, God tells us in 1 Corinthians 10:31 "Whether therefore ye eat or drink, or whatsoever ye do, do all to the Glory of God." There are multiple ways to consume weed for several motives. The question that Christian's must ask themselves is: WILL THIS ACTION BRING GOD GLORY, OR MYSELF SATISFACTION. God has designed us to experience pleasure, but it may be that God desires us to sacrifice pleasure or comfort. Christ did all of that and more when He died on the cross for our sins. It would not be unreasonable to give up something that brings us joy for His Glory. Thank you for being a light Allen, love your content and delivery!

This timing is amazing. I have been smoking weed since I was about 14 (I am 19 now), and for the past 2 years I could feel God telling me to stop smoking weed (I always felt an insane amount of guilt after coming down). Soon after I didn't really like smoking anymore but it became such a habit, it was very hard to break. Up until last night. My idiot self decides to rip a bong (my tolerance was pretty high, so one bowl got me at a good high where I could still function and do my everyday things and no one would know I was high) and the bowl I packed was kind of smaller than what I would usually take (my aim was to be more sober than high because your girl had lots of homework to do). After I took the hit, I instantly felt high and instantly regretted it. Fast forward to about 10 minutes later, I was in and out of reality, I could not tell what was real and what was fake, I was forgetting who I was, where I was, I lost track of time (it felt like days had passed), I then started to have a panic attack, couldn't control my breathing, and I called my brother telling him that I was dying. I cannot explain it but I genuinely felt like it was the absolute end for me and I was scared for my life. It's like I was constantly leaving my body. My brother finally came in my room to try and calm me down but I couldn't tell if he was really there or not because again, everything looked fake, I was questioning everything. During the peak of this lesson, I got on my knees and I just kept repeating "This is God telling me to stop" and "This is my testimony" and I finally understood what was going on. I literally set myself up for this but I'm grateful God made me go through this. This experience has traumatized me enough to completely cut out weed in MINUTES (felt like days). Also, the weed was not laced, which is confirmation that this really was God. All the times I decided to smoke some weed, were times where I could have talked with God. It's sad that he had to get me to go through this for me to fully repent, but hey it worked, and I love God WAY more than I liked weed, and that makes me a winner (:

[@DavidMartinez-vx7zb]

I used to every day before I was saved by Jesus. At one point and from then on I experienced some crazy spiritual visions, hallucinations, dreams, I was tormented every time I smoked and the enemy used that time that I was high to infiltrate my mind and implant ideas that affected my normal life and behavior. After I got saved I tried it again to see if it was fine and if i could do it and honor the Lord. You can’t. We should not be getting high or drunk. The only way marijuana should be consumed is medicinally prescribed by a profesional medical doctor and even then I would say not to smoke it but to take it in an edible form or as an oil. The Holy Spirit convicted me when I tried it again and the enemy was waiting for me to slip up to attack my mind again. It’s hard to recover, the enemy is nothing to play with. As a Christian to another please convince your sister needs to quit and pray for her that God may deliver her from it and do it without stopping until the day she finally quits. My families unwavering unending prayers are the reason I am now saved. Prayers are powerful. If your sister truly loves God she would know the word and obey it because by obeying it you obey Jesus and that is how God knows you love him. Reading the Bible is getting to know Jesus “And the WORD became flesh”. The Bible commands us to remain sober so why always seek to be high? If we willingly disobey the word of God then what are we? Luke 6:46 ESV “Why do you call me ‘Lord, Lord,’ and not do what I tell you? John 3:36 ESV Whoever believes in the Son has eternal life; whoever does not obey the Son shall not see life, but the wrath of God remains on him. She also needs to see who is wanting to smoke weed. If the entire world is after it, clearly is Christians need to move away from it. Matthew 7:13-14 ESV “Enter by the narrow gate. For the gate is wide and the way is easy that leads to destruction, and those who enter by it are many. For the gate is narrow and the way is hard that leads to life, and those who find it are few. Lastly, I will share scripture about faith and works. Believing in Jesus alone is worthless. After all how many people believed and Jesus said they would not enter the Kingdom but would be cast out? “On that day many will say to me, 'Lord, Lord, did we not prophesy in your name, and cast out demons in your name, and do many mighty works in your name?' And then will I declare to them, 'I never knew you; depart from me, you workers of lawlessness.'” ‭‭Matthew‬ ‭7:22-23‬ ‭ESV‬‬ So now if they believed and did works but they were hypocrites, they bore bad fruit, they had no love, they didn’t obey the word then we know that faith alone is not enough and even if you do the works but your heart is not in the right place, if you were lukewarm, then the path to heaven is really really narrow. “So, because you are lukewarm, and neither hot nor cold, I will spit you out of my mouth.” ‭‭Revelation‬ ‭3:16‬ ‭ESV‬‬ Yes faith in Jesus saves, that faith is in the fact that our works by our own efforts don’t bring salvation; only by the grace of God through His son are we saved but that faith must be backed up by works to show we really do believe what we say we believe. Just as works without faith is useless, faith without works to back up the faith is useless. The works is not just good deeds, but the actions you decide to take that reflect your faith in your every day life no matter if no one is there to watch you, God sees all. “What good is it, my brothers, if someone says he has faith but does not have works? Can that faith save him? If a brother or sister is poorly clothed and lacking in daily food, and one of you says to them, "Go in peace, be warmed and filled," without giving them the things needed for the body, what good is that? So also faith by itself, if it does not have works, is dead. But someone will say, "You have faith and I have works." Show me your faith apart from your works, and I will show you my faith by my works. You believe that God is one; you do well. Even the demons believe-and shudder! Do you want to be shown, you foolish person, that faith apart from works is useless? Was not Abraham our father justified by works when he offered up his son Isaac on the altar? You see that faith was active along with his works, and faith was completed by his works; and the Scripture was fulfilled that says, "Abraham believed God, and it was counted to him as righteousness"-and he was called a friend of God. You see that a person is justified by works and not by faith alone. And in the same way was not also Rahab the prostitute justified by works when she received the messengers and sent them out by another way? For as the body apart from the spirit is dead, so also faith apart from works is dead.” ‭‭James‬ ‭2:14-26‬ ‭ESV‬‬ So if she is a believer she needs to know she must obey the word of God and remain sober, she must not follow the world, and she must back up her faith action and that action can simply be obedience to God. Her salvation rests on that. This is serious and I hope your sister wakes up and realizes the truth because when I came across these verses I was scared straight and it did me good to refrain from those things. God bless you.

[@mwendia]

This doesn’t just apply to weed it applies to you alcohol drinkers too. like the good book said : we must stay sharp and sober minded. I know I can function just fine if not better when I’m under the influence because of the positive benefits of weed, at the end of the day weed , red-meat or liquor isn’t for everyone. We all pick our poison. To much of anything is bad for you except GOD! Go vegan! Let food be thy medicine and thy medicine be thy food!!! brothers and sisters!💨 And I appreciate you Allen for not bashing or trying to make us weed smokers feel guilty!
