Well, the Bible tells us not to let our bodies be mastered by anything, and tobacco is very addictive and damaging to your health. So, yes, it is a sin.
But I smoke, I'm a heavy smoker. Nasty terrible habit. But it is no less forgivable than any other sin.
I don't want to sound like a hypocrite. But smoking is a sin, in my opinion. It damages your body, and the Holy Spirit lives in us, therefore our bodies are a temple. We should honor our bodies for that reason.
This of course is my opinion. Everyone will have their own.
Hi all!
For almost a year now I've been smoking cigarettes in my car and out with friends. I don't drink or do any drugs, and i'm old enough now to buy them at the store.
I know its bad for me but i just wanted to know if it was against god or not.
1) Your body is a temple of the holy spirit.
1 Corinthians 6:19 says:
“. . . Do you not know that your body is a temple of the Holy Spirit who is in you, whom you have from God, and that you are not your own?â€
2) Smoking is a bondage.
God doesn't like bondage.
Exodus 6:6 says:
"Therefore say to the children of Israel: ‘I am the LORD; I will bring you out from under the burdens of the Egyptians, I will rescue you from their bondage, and I will redeem you with an outstretched arm and with great judgments."
Is smoking against god?
