I am a smoker. I have been smoking for many, many years. I know that you are going to get many replies of people who are going to point their finger at you and say.....naughty....naughty...but then they have to ask themselves if they drink alcohol or drink coffee which are all drugs. Also the Bible says gluttony is a sin. Have you ever eaten too much? Judging others is ok in the Bible unless you are judging hypocritically then it is not ok. Most people use alcohol, cigarettes and coffee because they are self medicating themselves. Most people use nicotine for the benefits of anxiety. It is always a good choice to stop using alcohol, nicotine or caffeine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One sin is no better than another sin, and no worse, except for the blasphemy of the Holy Spirit. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm allergic to you then Honestly, I am dreadfully allergic to cigarette smoke. Like some have said, sin is sin, I can't judge you for smoking when I require a half a pot of coffee to get out of bed every day. It is terrible for your health but so are many other things that we all struggle with daily. I do believe the Lord can make us free from all things that have a hold of us, including caffeine and cigarettes, and I am persuaded it's His will that we do walk in freedom from all of these addictions.

I would like to be allergic to cigarette smoke. That would take care of it . Many of the GI doctors( stomach doctors) will tell their patients " NO MORE COFFEE" the acid is really bad for the stomach. Also caffeine can bring on heart arrythmias. If you were to visit a Cardiac unit at a hospital those patients can not have regular coffee. Possible a small amount of decaf. Maybe a cup a day.

Yup, like I said we all (if we're honest) have things we do that aren't the best for us. Mine just happens to be coffee lol It isn't good that we allow anything to have control over us, but we also need to keep in mind that we have no place to judge another believer for something like smoking when we ourselves struggle with something as well.
