to sustain ourselves according to the Ten Commandments of God.

I can't find the Commandment that says, "Thous shalt not smoke pot - but alcohol is OK."

Drunkenness, the state of being intoxicated, that's what the Bible exhorts against.

The Bible is quite clear that alcoholic drinks are fine as long as one does not get drunk.

Wine is partaken of at the Lord's table.

Drug users hate to face the truth; they prefer that their minds be under the influence of their drugs as opposed to the influence of the Holy Spirit.

I used to get drunk from time to time and thought nothing was wrong with doing that; after my conversion to Christ, it became obvious that I needed to place how the Bible tells me to live over how I used to live. It was the Holy Spirit that changed my desires; I can claim no credit for doing so.

Can you find the one that says; Thou Shalt Not promote drug use on a Conservative Christian web forum?
