So what do you guys think about smoking weed? I know we are allowed to eat it, but I wonder about smoking it. Honestly it has been bothering me for some time, if it is a sin to do it. I see no direct command against it, but I think of it like drunkenness, it's okay to drink wine but not to get drunk meaning it's okay to smoke it but not like it run my life and cause me to sin other ways. What are your opinions?

Here is my understanding an thoughts with both tobacco and Marijuana; Tabasco what does the word say ? Well not much really just that our bodies is a temple and to treat it as so; so for me I tried to go as Naturals’s I could an then I moved from that to a e-cig, so it comes down to personal decision between you and Yah. Now Mj yes it is allowed an I believe it was/ is used as incense an smoked an eaten now if that becomes a must an not like wine ie special occasions or small amount regularly an becomes a major habit that is an issue, you will have to at that time take a step back an re-evaluate if it has become a strange fire in the temple, ie are you worshipping it.
Search the endocannabinoid system on google . We have dedicated receptors for compounds found in cannabis . I agree temple maintenance is important to keep but the benefits of cannabis are hard to argue against. Too much of anything is harmful. CBD in cannabis is not psychoactive and is found in other plants as well. Hope this helps.
I agree with Mia
Our bodies are a temple of the Ruach HaKadosh.
No unauthorized ‘fire’ was allowed in the Holy of Holies, (remember Nadab and Abihu). Too risky to take chances with your Temple.
Only YAH can help with addictions, and He is more than willing.
Be strong, and of good courage. He understands our weaknesses, He loves you, both.
i will keep you both in my prayer,

I don't think I have an answer for you, but I can share my experience if it is worth anything. Alrighty well, all through college and into my 30's I was an avid pot smoker (i.e a pothead). I didn't see the harm in it, but I would occasionally set it down for a time to lower my tolerance. Well this habit remained to a degree even after I was saved. Since it isn't directly mentioned, it was easy to find reasons to keep it up...except for the fact that I always had this feeling that I shouldn't be doing it...which was a total buzz kill. So, one day I prayed "Father, I am not strong enough to put this down on my own. I need to your help. If you want me to stop, please convict my heart!" That very same night, a Youtube video came up on my stream in which a Christian guy was making the case that the elite/kabbalist actually are wanting people to smoke weed and it is being propagated with poisons (no regulations, questionable chemicals, etc) with legislature making it easier every year for people to access it across the country. It all made sense to me. *My apologies, I have no idea what his Youtube channel is or how to find that video since it just popped into my awareness* Well you can be sure, this was the conviction I needed! I have not smoked since, and that was 7 months ago. Now, do I believe that guy was 100% right and everyone should believe his viewpoint? No. But it was an answer to my personal prayer and I KNEW it was a warning from the Father that I shouldn't be putting that stuff in my body. That being said, I sincerely believe some people benefit A LOT from cannabis. However, it is important for everyone to seek organic sources or to simply grow it themselves. Pray. Always, always pray. Ask ABBA for help and He will help you. Shalom ❤
If I may pass an opinion. Any substance that can cause an altered state of mind when used in a particular way is related to witchcraft, or pharmakeia. The reason this is important is because we are told not to be like the heathen, which if we look at the practices of the world, it is to consume substances in ways that are deliberately intended to cause an altered state of mind. Alcohol is different only because we are directly told not to consume to drunkenness as that leads to foolishness which then leads to sin which is transgression of the Law. But the general practice is to take natural substances and burn them for hallucinogenic purposes or numbing of the mind, which causing one to empty their thoughts and lose control of their bodies and spirits to demonic influences. Whether one says so or not, to empty oneself is to allow another influence in. And the effects of MJ when inhaled is numbing of the mind. This is my perspective on this when taking the Scriptures and cultural or societal traditions into account
You are very welcome, Mia. Hang in there, you’re not alone
I went through this too. Tell me how you got it for the first time? I tried for a long time to try, but then I realized that I needed an intermediate stage, and I bought a vape and started adding cbd oil from https://blessedcbd.co.uk to juice. It seems to me that this is what helped me quit smoking completely. I vaped for several months, and then completely quit.
This is actually what I did also. I smoked nicotine for almost 12 years and then my brother got me a vape, I smoked it with nicotine for about three months until it burned up on me I decided not to buy another and tried a cigarette which made me sick to my stomach and haven't bought a pack since. That was about three years ago
Perfectly spoken... I personally believe the plant is the plant YAH created to heal mend and comfort any alignment, whether your smoking eating rubbing or admiring. It to my wife and I the most beautiful and best aroma there is. That's personal opinion. Think about why our government has kept it from us all this time. Thank goodness we live in Michigan.
