As dedicated servants of Jehovah God, under the headship of Jesus Christ, we do not use marijuana. Our scriptural reasoning for not doing so can be found at 2 Corinthians 7:1, which states, "Therefore, since we have these promises, beloved ones, let us cleanse ourselves of every defilement of flesh and spirit, perfecting holiness in God's fear." This text shows us that we have to cleanse ourselves of every defilement of flesh. If we were to smoke marijuana, we would be effecting our bodies in a negative way, which would be categorized as intentional defilement of our bodies. Not to mention it alters our mind when consumed. This brings us to another text that helps us to see that taking drugs is not something a servant of God would want to do. Titus 2:11-12 states, "For the undeserved kindness of God which brings salvation to all sorts of men has been manifested, instructing us to repudiate ungodliness and worldly desires and to live with soundness of mind and righteousness and godly devotion amid this present system of things." Here we also see that we must live with soundness of mind. If we were to smoke marijuana, which impairs judgment and alters the mind after continuous use, would we be living with soundness of mind? In all actuality, we would not be. Therefore, servants of Jehovah do not use marijuana.
I studied with JW`s for years and then stopped for this reason..
I must thank God Jehovah gave us marijuana. Billions of people throughout thousands of years have been using it to improve the quality of life if not save it all together. Jehovah said, "I give you every seed-bearing plant on the face of the whole earth and every tree that has fruit with seed in it. They will be yours for food. Genesis 1:29
I suffer from chronic fatigue and the reason why I can live a healthy life is because of Jehovah`s marijuana. I respect Gods instructions by not defiling it by letting anyone brainwash me into believing that God does not want me to use marijuana. Do you not know that your body is a temple of the Holy Spirit, who is in you, whom you have received from God? You are not your own; 1 Corinthians 6:19
