interesting post mike, but just as you have interpreted passages of the Bible to support cannbis use, people interpret passages to apply all sorts of crazy rules. If the Bible was the absolute truth, then why is there so much conflict about its meaning and message? why have the followers of Christ factioned themselves into hundreds of subgroups with plural interpretations of his teachings, and who do you think is right? My point is that many people have faith and it helps them, and helps them help others, and that's great. But to claim to be able to show someone the "truth" is nigh on blasphemy. The nature of man is that he can only discover the truth for himself, therefore dogmatic teaching of religion leads to badly supported/misconceived beliefs since the individual has not reached an understanding by himself. I think you should keep in mind that people may need to travel their own path to find the truth that is truly meaningful to them.
peace

Amen!
I couldn't have said it better myself, man

[QUOTE=meek mike
It truly is said to see so many Christ followers divided because of a diffrent political labels. Personaly I think a lot of them have it right. Only because a lot of them follow Jesus Christ. In my belief system if you follow Christ's teachings your right. Again that is my belief system and as you know everyone has there own.

This still worries me, because this was my point- if all it takes to be right is to follow Christ, how can we reconcile the different interpretations of Christ's teachings? If people are following what they learn in sunday school it's surely a different affair than if they have a deeply moving spiritual understanding that gives them reason to follow Christ. This to me is the main issue. If people are moved to faith by their own understanding (of any religion/creed) then that is religion serving its true purpose. But if it just a matter of instruction and following rules that can be variously interpreted we're back to square one. We must always leave room for people to wuestion or the will not grow.

peace, thanks for actually engaging in discussion with me.

How can u smoke legally threw ur ministry towards god?. I underdstand that god has put the nice plant on the earth but the USA wont legalize it. So i we get caught then where in trouble where do u smoke it at?

[Kid Dynamite]

Yeah i dont understand that either. Maybe you say smoking throuigh christianity is morally legal, but that wont sytand up in court when you get charged with posession. Explain...

The way I see it, in the Bible God said that you have to obey the law of the land as long as it doesn't conflict with God's will..

So, being a minister and smoking cannabis would be a contradiction, since the law of the land says cannabis is illegal

So where did it say in the bible that we shouldn't smoke cannabis?
Weren't we told,
"I give you every seed-bearing plant on the face of the whole earth and every tree that has fruit with seed in it."

i thought it also said not to do anything that purposely harms your body etc etc?

anyway, to me the bible is just a big book of contradictions.. Lulu, i didnt mean to say youre doing anything wrong lol sorry if i offended you
