Why do believers say it is okay to drink alcohol but not okay to take marijuana? Are either okay according to the Bible?

Thanks Brother.. I drink wine on Shabbat and feasts. Celebratory, but that’s it for the most part.. there are times I FEEL to want to “wind down” and I do, but I’m at home and relaxing… Other than that, I don’t… I do NOT condone smoking marijuana at all, though.. that was one of my major walks that I came out of.. I used to smoke ounces of cali-weed every day to myself..Small or great, it’s no bueno..thanks for doing this message & sharing your heart, Akhi.I really appreciate it. Much love3
Detachment from the world is a very attractive attribute about marijuana. Unfortunately, it also results in detachment from The Most High….makes me feel “worldly” and unfocused on Torah. I have fallen many times, but, I made a vow to never use again..but, I only used recreationally. I choose Torah ( Y’Shua ).
I just can’t do both. Just can’t. Believe me…I’ve tried.
+bridgerbergman sad for you me im very happy with it 🙂 each one have to do thing with personal conviction ,no doubt ,if 4 you it wasnt good its a good thing you chosse to respect yourself and stop god bless
Then you shouldnt be smoking but i smoke work a full time job do my studies and everything else if u let anything overtake u or control u its a sin
Dang that sucks for you bro.. You should think about truly repenting and letting the ways of this world and society go because marijuana only amplifies the desire of your heart and mind.. When i smoke i grow even hungrier for the things of God… If you must fall fall upward toward the most high not away.. Be real with The most high dont try to hide from him.. He can already see your nakedness just go to him in all things and in all ways…
Shalom. marijuana is a seed bearing plant. drugs are made in a lab
and what??
BRENDAJASON1 just because all things are given for us are all things profitable would you eat poison berries or mushrooms because there given to us?
Poison berries and poison mushrooms would be ..well… poison. Cannabis is not poison, in fact the oil harvested from the seeds of cannabis sativa is the best oil that a human being can consume. And all human beings have an “endocannabinoid system” You will need to do your own research. But if you are seriously interested in the truth then you will find it 🙂
Everything GOD made is for a purpose. Poisonous berries or mushrooms must also have a purpose.
So is opioids
1 Corinthians 6:12 All things are permitted for me, but not all things are profitable. All things are permitted for me, but I will not be controlled by anything.
Bravo, to the scriptures, scriptures RULES above every silly or wise comment after of before yours.
thats exactly what we need to share the WORD, the wood word.
Those who claim to love me and don’t obey my abba comandmentes or mizvots are liers and the truth are not in them.

Paul was a false apostle and satan himself, he came to destroy the law of the Jews in order to get the gentiles to followhim.

Matthew Cunningham Searth about pharmakeia in the “new testament” and in the septuagint. Read about the vercicle in the septuagint about this term, it is not weed.
This is a subject that I have been thinking about for a while now. I think the Creator puts everything here for a purpose. The problem is that the Creator gives and man corrupts. Thank you very much for giving me a Biblical view on this subject.
Stan Vanalstine ….He put poison ivy here. Would you go roll around in it?
+Chris Horv no. cause it’s poisonous! cannabis is not poisonous, it actually helps people HEAL their bodies…
And what was the purpose of the wine at the wedding in Cana? The amount produced was approximately 150 U.S. gallons. Was that just to give a “sip” to each guest? I think not. There was merry-making and a joyous celebration of the wedding, and our Deliverer was there and facilitated it with his first recorded miracle.
This was not grape juice as some would argue. No, this was WINE, and it was VERY good wine. And it was not for Pesach, Sabbath, or any other Moedim, it was for the lighthearted celebration of the wedding. Of course drunkenness is wrong, but to claim that it is wrong to drink any amount more than a sip is wrong and unscriptural.
Arbor Vitae , medicine for those about to die or suffering abject poverty is totally different than what is happening today.
The Bible very clearly states we are NOT to be drunk. There isn’t a Biblical definition that differentiates being buzzed versus drunk. I’d assert that when you feel different, that’s enough.
when i did a thorough study a few years back, I discovered that the alcohol we have now is FAR stronger than what existed back then.
Consider the FRUIT: people drink and fight, drink and sleep together, drink and get foul mouthed or perverse.
All things are lawful unto me, but all things are not expedient: all things are lawful for me, but I will not be brought under the power of any.
1 Corintians 6:12
+Chrystal Frost Exactly!
To the healthw.m. nice video, i really was expecting from you to be a condoner, not a smoker but condoner, any way, we can talk about wine and cannabis all day long, with out to even touching the surface, all i might add is an advice from my rebbe
You are in the world
but you don’t belongs to them.

let me ask you this? am i sinning by drinking energy drinks all the time?
Proverbs 31 – [6] Give strong drink unto him that is ready to perish, and wine unto those that be of heavy hearts. [7] Let him drink, and forget his poverty, and remember his misery no more.
Dan P , medicine for those about to die or suffering abject poverty is totally different than what is happening today.

Wine was designed to change your mood. It’s not a sin to change your mood.
“Give strong drink unto him that is ready to perish, and wine unto those that be of heavy hearts.”
Proverbs 31:6 KJV
“And wine that maketh glad the heart of man, and oil to make his face to shine, and bread which strengtheneth man’s heart.”
Psalms 104:15 KJV
“A feast is made for laughter, and wine maketh merry: but money answereth all things.”
Ecclesiastes 10:19 KJV

100% Scriptually Sound, Right On Brother!This is the exact reasoning and purpose for the plants,alcohol etc. Well Said
I have appreciated your information and I think you are right on!! Thank you so much for your work!!
Free the weed
the only reason i take pot is to sleep, pills just dont do the job i get from pot.
The Bible certainly warns against “staying too long in the wine” and the destruction that comes from it. It does also say, in Proverbs, “do not withhold the wine from a man in the day of his sorrow”. The Bible urges people “to be of sober mind” because we know not the hour of His return. It gets interesting where someone like Noah was found passed out drunk in his tent. It makes up one of the Bible`s greatest stories.
I agree with what you said- no alcohol or drugs to alter your mind. Why take a chance and open a door you may spend years trying to close? Do not give the devil a foothold. That’s just my opinion.
Norman Willis (Nazarene Israel) has (I believe) a sound teaching on Cannabis. Everything has a medicinal value, and the dose makes the poison. There is great variety in plants. All in the species is not the same. (CBD is very different from hemp, and both have their place in nutrition and medicine).
A 4 ounce glass of wine with your meal is ok but I agree people abuse it
Thanks for the video. Blessings to you
