but i don't think the link to this worldly stuff up here is necesary anymore. "Be careful little eyes what you see. Its the second glance that ties your hand as darkness pulls its string" i learnt the bolded from casting crown.

Kobojunkie:
"Worldly" in what sense?

Sex is not a sin with one you are married to. Neither is smoking a sin. So please be a bit more specific about what you mean by "worldly stuff"?

24brains:
kobojunkie, though smoking wasn't stated anywhere in the bible, it is a sin before GOD because it is considered unholy habit. "present your bodies as a living sacrifice in fear of God
2. "(Rom.12:1) "cleanse yourselves of every defilement of flesh and spirit, that ye may be made holy before the lord"(2corinth. 7:1)

The bible may not contain everything but IQ should tell us that. just like standing in front of a moving truck because it wasn't stated in the bible to be a sin.

Charmingrascal, kingpin1000 and 2rez have all testified to it and it actually works. @ kobojunkie.

1. Smoking is not a sin. Instead, what is sin is adding commandments to God's Law which is what you are attempting here to do by specifying that which God has not said is sin, as sin. In fact, this sin of adding commandments to God's Law comes with a curse attached - Matthew 15 vs 1 - 14

There is nothing unholy about smoking since smoking is not a sin. And Jesus Christ taught you that it is not what you eat or ingest that makes you unholy or unworthy of God or defiled you. Instead it is the lies that you have stored up in your heart that causes you to sin - Matthew 15 vs 10 - 20

2. If you want to cleanse your body of that which defiles you, you do so by ridding yourself of all the lies that have absolutely nothing to do with the Truth of Jesus Christ. And following Jesus Christ's teaching, the only way to do that is to KNOW(submit to and obey) the Truth of Jesus Christ. It is by Knowing the Truth, that you rid yourself of the lies in your heart and are then set free from slavery to sin - John 8 vs 31 - 44. That is the only way to become a Son of God - a holy and acceptable vessel for the Spirit of God to live inside of..

Sincerely marijuana increases libido and it boosts sex drive.
A girl I dated would always ask me to roll a joint whenever we were getting intimate and I understood that whenever she smoked, even when she inhale just four-five drags from a full rolled joint we would have intense sex for long, she wouldn't get tired even after multiple orgasm. She wasn't using marijuana as much as I did it was just when we wanted to get intimate. Even in the middle of the night she would ask for a joint.
Unfortunately or fortunately for me I stopped smoking Marijuana early last month and to be sincere I miss Marijuana and that my ex sex but I have vowed not to smoke again

24brains:
ok lets be practical. If one smokes, he gets high and out of his mind and may start to misbehave (what comes out of a man) this may cause the person to sin.

16 Jesus said, “Do you still have trouble understanding?
17 Surely you know that all the food that enters the mouth goes into the stomach. Then it goes out of the body.
18 But the bad things people say with their mouth come from the way they think. And that’s what can make people wrong.
19 All these bad things begin in the mind: evil thoughts, murder, adultery, sexual sins, stealing, lying, and insulting people.
20 These are the things that make people wrong. Eating without washing their hands will never make people unacceptable to God.” - Matthew 15 vs 16 - 20

Kobojunkie:
Carefully listen to what Jesus Christ is telling you of what causes people to sin.
Yes, Marijuana alters the mind but if there are no bad intentions in that mind to cause such a one to sin,then will such a one sin?

People smoke Marijuana for various reasons and most of those who do do not sin as a result of their smoking it. Those who do typically do so because they want to sin,not because they smoked Marijuana or anything else.

24brains:
ok oo. I enjoyed the scriptural dwell. It prompt me to study more

Kobojunkie:
Read the parable of the 10 talents in Matthew 25 vs 14 - 30, paying close attention to the lesson of the parable as given by Jesus Christ in verse 29

Then read Matthew 13 vs 10 - 17, this time paying close attention to what Jesus Christ said in verse 12.

Those passages explain the rule as it applies in the Kingdom of God of how to gain understanding from Jesus Christ, of His Word and Kingdom. It is not gained through "studying" but through application of what you have in obedience.

24brains:
how do you apply what you don't have? You first study to know and have, then apply that which you have learnt.

Kobojunkie:
Did you listen to Jesus Christ telling you the Parable of the 10 talents - Matthew 25 vs 14 - 30 ?

The Lord in the story gave his servants what they needed to start with. So also God has, if you claim you encountered Him, already something to begin with. Put to use what you already have of God's very own commandment to, and He will direct you and Teach you everything else you need to know.

24brains:
how does GOD directs and teaches us all we need to know? through the bible of course! and how do you get to know what the bible teaches? through frequent study and meditation!!

Kobojunkie:
You can "study" that entire book from start to finished every single year for all of your life but still end up missing out on the Truth of God's Kingdom - that is what Jesus Christ is sort of telling you in Matthew 13 vs 10 - 17. The Truth of God's Kingdom is only made known to those who will use the understanding they already have. Those who refuse to use that little that was given them will have even that little taken away from them.

Look at your many GOs, Pope's, Bishops, Apostles, Pastors - all claiming to be men of God yet ignorant of the very Truth of Jesus Christ and His Kingdom. They know about Jesus Christ but they do not KNOW Jesus Christ and who He truly is. They speak of Him from their pulpit most every other day.

24brains:
don't mistake reading for study and meditation for craming. Only when you can distinguish between these, only then shall ye know how to decode the holy bible into understanding.

24brains:
but how did you know all these sir? You just woke up to know?

24brains:
Guilt? Yes.... But old things are pass away and everything becomes anew. All those rubish i post here is an open confession testifying the rough life i have lived before regaining my path to christ. And you think i will not feel guity and depressed?

When a sinner acknowledges his sins, he gets judged by his conscience and this become the most critical time in their life. Many experience self condemnation and may move to commit suicide believing in the lies of the devil that there's no second chance for them.

I have totally repented my dear.

Do your research very well, smoking generally is bad for sex drive and even erection

Kobojunkie:
I did as Jesus Christ said to do via the Parable of the 10 talents and Matthew 13 vs 10 - 17. I began living in submission and obedience to the teachings and commandments of Jesus Christ, using the understanding I previously had in my life. And the more I used what I had, over time, more and more understanding was given to me by Him and I in turn put those to use, both in my moment to moment obedience of Him, which includes teaching unbelievers and sinners the Gospel of the Kingdom of God as taught me by Jesus Christ.

zexy2030:

10mil and still depressed? It is not weed you need but happy faces of people who are more depressed than you.
Though I have taken it before and the feeling is good but its addictive and could change your cliques. Beware.

dalass:


Then believe your sins have been totally wiped off totally by Jesus's blood.

There is therefore now no condemnation to those who are in Christ Jesus. For the law of the Spirit of life in Christ Jesus has set us free from the law of sin,(guilt), and death.

Shake off the guilty complex once you've truly repented. And rejoice in your freedom.

Peace
