Lies and excuses for smoking weed:
1.) GOD MADE IT THEREFORE WE CAN SMOKE IT.
That’s a bad assumption! First, nowhere in the Bible does God allow us to smoke anything. Second, just because God made something doesn’t mean we can consume it. For example; God made the tree of knowledge of good and evil and told them NOT to eat from it.
2.) GOD GAVE US EVERY HERB BEARING SEED THEREFORE WE CAN SMOKE IT.
Wrong! Just because God gave us herbs doesn’t mean we can smoke them. Read Genesis 1:29. “And God said, Behold, I have given you every herb bearing seed… to you it shall be for MEAT.”
MEAT means food, NOT smoke! So can we eat it then? Not if it gets you high. The Bible says be sober (that means clear minded). You can’t be clear minded when you’re high. “Be sober, be vigilant; because your adversary the devil, as a roaring lion, walketh about, seeking whom he may devour:” (1 Peter 5:8)
God wants us sober and clear minded so we don’t become easy targets for the Devil.
3.) THE HOLY ANOINTING OIL WAS CANNABIS.
That’s a lie. The Bible says the Holy anointing oil was calamus. NOT cannabis.
“Take thou also unto thee principal spices, of pure myrrh five hundred shekels, and of sweet cinnamon half so much, even two hundred and fifty shekels, and of sweet CALAMUS two hundred and fifty shekels,” (Exodus 30:23)
Some people think that because the Hebrew words ‘qe-neh’ and ‘bo-sem’ "rhyme" with cannabis, that means it is cannabis! What an assumption! If you wanna play the rhyming game; there’s a type of cherry blossom that can be referred to as the “Kwanzan Blossom”. That rhymes with ‘qe-neh’ ‘bo-sem’ as well. So let’s not play the rhyming game. When the Bible says calamus it means calamus.
But even if it was cannabis (which it wasn’t) doesn’t mean we can smoke it. It was meant to be oil used for anointing, not something to be smoked.
Continuing on, in an effort to discredit calamus, marijuana advocates claim that calamus oil is poisonous. It’s not. Google calamus oil to see there’s a market for it and it's said to have health benefits. The fact that they go so far to lie about this shows how desperate they are and that should make you question what else they’re lying about.
4.) IF YOU’RE AGAINST MARIJUANA THAT MEANS YOU’RE FOR BIG PHARMA.
Not true. You can oppose marijuana and big pharma at the same time. Do neither and find an alternative - one that doesn’t get you high.
5.) THE BIBLE ALLOWS US TO DRINK THEREFORE WE CAN SMOKE WEED.
Wrong again! First, the Bible allows “some” drinking under certain situations as long as you don’t get drunk. “And be not drunk with wine, wherein is excess; but be filled with the Spirit; (Ephesians 5:18) “...Be not deceived: neither fornicators... NOR DRUNKARDS… shall inherit the kingdom of God.” (1 Corinthians 6:9-10)
Second, even though the Bible allows “some” drinking under certain circumstances, it NEVER says we can smoke weed.
Third, there’s a big difference between drinking under biblical standards and smoking weed.
6.) IF YOU DRINK COFFEE YOU SHOULD ALSO BE ALLOWED TO SMOKE WEED.
Who would you rather build your house? A man smoking weed or a man drinking coffee? Who would you rather babysit your child? A woman smoking a blunt or a woman drinking coffee? It’s ridiculous to even compare the two.
7.) BUT IT HEALS!
Does it? There’s a saying: repeat a lie long enough and people will believe it.
Just because a doctor told you it heals doesn’t mean it heals. Who’s paying the doctor to say that?
Just because a friend told you it healed them doesn’t mean that’s what healed them. There’s something called the “Placebo Effect”; when a person taking a drug is told it will heal them but what healed them is “believing” it would heal them, not the drug itself. The mind is a powerful thing!
Just because you saw a video of someone "healed" with cannabis doesn’t make it real. It’s called the magic of cinema and the power of marketing. Marijuana is big business and many just wanna get high.
Many reliable sources say marijuana DOESN'T heal and that it’s just a myth, a hype, an excuse to get high.
You don’t need to get high to be healed. Other natural things can heal you. For example, vitamin C. Link below…

Why's it called that?
According to the Bible.
1.) WHY’S IT CALLED GETTING HIGH?
Where’s this high place pot smokers are trying to reach? Heaven? They smoke weed to feel good. And what place feels better than heaven? They’re trying to get to heaven another way. Not Jesus’ way.
Jesus said: “I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me.” (John 14:6)
Jesus is the only way to heaven. NOT weed.
2.) WHY’S IT CALLED GETTING STONED?
Getting stoned is when someone is killed by having rocks thrown at them. The Bible says God will punish the wicked with hailstones because they won’t repent of their sorceries.
“... Neither repented they of their murders, nor of their SORCERIES…” (Revelation 9:21)
“And there fell upon men a great HAIL out of heaven, every STONE about the weight of a talent: and men blasphemed God because of the plague of the HAIL; for the plague thereof was exceeding great.” (Revelation 16:21)
Smoking weed is SORCERY. Burning a plant, changing it from a solid to a smoke and sucking it into your body to alter your mind is SORCERY. So, those who get stoned, WILL GET STONED.
3.) WHY’S IT CALLED CHRONIC?
The definition of chronic: (of an illness) persisting for a long time or constantly recurring.
If marijuana heals, why’s it called something associated with illness? Unless, it makes you ill.
4.) WHY’S IT CALLED WEED?
Weeds are usually not a good thing. We get rid of them. The Bible has a name for weeds. They’re called TARES, i.e. counterfeit Christians. They’ll be weeded out and thrown into the fire. “As therefore the TARES are gathered and burned in the fire; so shall it be in the end of this world.” (Matthew 13:40)
There’s a saying: You are what you eat. Maybe you’re also what you smoke.
5.) WHY’S IT CALLED KUSH?
Kush or Cush was the father of Nimrod. Nimrod built the tower of Babel. Scripture associates Babel with confusion. It’s no coincidence smoking “Kush” makes you confused.
6.) WHY’S IT CALLED MAGIC DRAGON?
The dragon is Satan and magic is sorcery.
“... And the great dragon was cast out, that old serpent, called the Devil, and Satan, which deceiveth the whole world…” (Revelation 12:9) The Bible says sorcerers are going to the Lake of fire. (See Revelation 21:8)
7.) WHY’S IT CALLED THE DEVIL’S LETTUCE?
Can it be any more obvious? He who has ears to hear let him hear.
8.) WHY'S IT CALLED 420?
If you drop the 0 from 420 you get 42. "0" has no value and is just a place holder. The antichrist will reign on earth for 42 months. 42 is the number for the antichrist and rebellion. "And there was given unto him a mouth speaking great things and blasphemies; and power was given unto him to continue forty and two months." (Revelation 13:5)
