Can Christians Smoke Weed?

What do you have for us today? A website is where people, Nicole shot us a message and said, I'm really struggling with giving up marijuana.

I know it says to be sober minded in the Bible and I feel like it's a sin to get high, but I'm just struggling with it so much.

Any advice? Do you

know, does anybody have an idea why she would be, it sounds like an addiction.

Marijuana is not addicting, right? Is

it not? I think anything that you, anything can be addictive.

Is it like nicotine? I don't believe so.

I guess we talked about working out last week and that can be addictive.

I like

alcohol too.

Alcohol is, well, alcoholism.

So why do you think she's struggling? Just a question for the group.

Trying to get some context.

Why do you think she's struggling?

It's substituting as a fix for a problem that's deeper.

It's making her numb to it.

Can you read it one more time? Yeah, I'm really struggling with giving up marijuana.

I know it says to be sober minded in the Bible, and I feel like it's a sin to get high, but I'm still struggling with it so much.

So something that's hard about these questions, besides the context of I want to ask why are you struggling, but another part of the context is if I'm with somebody personally, I could usually tell within a few questions if they are a Christian or not.

Mm-hmm.

And that's a very important thing.

That doesn't come across as me trying to make some kind of weird judgment, but it allows me to know who I'm talking to and what they need.

Do they need me to press into them to endure and to put off sin? That's what I would give a Christian.

Are they not a Christian? Then they need the gospel.

Because there's no amount of enduring that they are capable of doing.
