Good Sabbath Church!
1 Corinthians 10:31-32
31 Therefore, whether you eat or drink, or whatever you do, do all to the glory of God.
32 Give no offense, either to the Jews or to the Greeks or to the church of God,
1 Corinthians 3:16-17
16 Do you not know that you are the temple of God and that the Spirit of God dwells in
you?
17 If anyone defiles the temple of God, God will destroy him. For the temple of
God is holy, which temple you are.
We are not to engage in any activity that destroys the body.
We can use these principles to guide us in all our health decisions. People can say
that smoking cigarettes are not condemned in the bible. But when we apply these
principles, we can see that cigarette smoking cannot continue in good conscience.
(1) There are 18 active toxins in tobacco the main ones being nicotine and tar.
(2) ½ drop of nicotine could kill a rabbit.
(3) There are 2 ½ drops of nicotine in every cigarette.
(4) 700,000 a year die from cigarette related diseases.
(5) Cigarette smoking is a mind and body destroying habit.
(6) The Surgeon General has put a warning label on every pack.
We can see how God’s principles reject this habit. And once it is realized that it is a
harmful to the body, it can be concord in Christ! Hallelujah!
May God bless your journey to good health.
Your Sister in Christ,
