Altering the thought process with mind altering substances for the sole purpose of a euphoric feeling is a sin, and in the end there will be negative consequences. Yes, the Bible clearly classifies sorceries (Greek
(pharmakeia), English
(pharmacy) as damnable sin.
As one who spent 10 years in a drug and alcohol state of mind, of which the God of the Bible delivered me and set me free, and now a minister of the gospel having studied the word of God diligently, I'm very familiar about what I speak.
So the Bible says it's a sin, yet there was no prohibition under secular law in biblical times, nor are there admonitions in the Bible that there should be such secular laws.
So I ask again, what is the biblical justification for modern day prohibition laws?
