Did Jesus Use Cannabis?

Smoke_Rings · Posted: Mon Oct 11, 2004 6:20 pm Post subject: Did Jesus Use Cannabis?

Hi all,
I found this link and thought it to be interesting, that cannabis was a common herb used for many uses from the beginning. For many years I used cannabis secretly for pleasure and medical and always felt guilty being a pentecostal minister. Not that there is anything wrong with using what God called good in genesis 1:11,12

I think for the most part It will be a Job for the Traditional so called Christian Church to Accept Cannabis as being biblical and good.

I encourage all doubting Christian's and to any one who is interested, to get an Strong Concordance and a JKV Holy Bible and they can see what some of the words really mean and not just take peoples opinions as fact. Why do most cannabis plants have seven leaves? Seven in the bible is the number of perfection.

Frankincense & Myrrh which is a (calming) herb was used for Medicine, Incense, Oil etc. as among other spices.

I do not believe Jesus smoked Cannabis but used the holy anointing oil to anoint the sick and cast out devils.

I agree with you S_R, that Cannabis appears to exhibit a perfection of symmetry that few other plants do. And like you say the numbers seem to be biblical.

Smoke Rings... My husband was raised penticostal and he STILL has pangs of guilt. You know they alos preach no alcohol altho I remind my husband that Jesus turned the water to wine at the wedding feast.

He replied with what was put in his head all those years. "It was unfermented " I said Honey unfermented wine is grape juice. The Bible says WINE. He struggles with this deep indoctorinazation at least a cpl times a week to this day.

My husband often feels bad for having a beer now and again. In 6 years of marrage I have never seen my husband drunk. Rolling Eyes

And he still wrestles with the cannabis issue in his heart at times. hug

Hi Ramadon,

Hope all is well with you. I enjoy Words and Numbers. After starting this link I referred to my Number books ...Biblical Mathematics and Number in scripture. It is very plain that the Number (Seven) 7 is seen throughout the entire bible. Not only can be seen and illistrated in the natural realm but also of Spirititual things.

I was gonna write some things I saw in the books I mentioned, but came across a cool link by punching in the number (Seven) 7 in the google search engine, that gives a good pitcture of how significant the number (Seven) 7 is.

I found it interesting also, that the number (Twelve) 12 as in the Twelve manner of fruits mentioned concering the Tree of life in Revelation's 22:2 has Twelve fruits, which represents Govermental Perfection. The Tree of life will be a literal tree as per the Scripture.

Wont that be a treat, Govermental Perfection lol

When I teach & preach, I always stress not to try to spiritualize eveything, or try to interpret the Holy Bible, it is already written in english and dont need to be interpreted lol For there are many things in the Holy Bible that are literal, that are going on, right now in this life.

For Spiritual, is nothing less then God's reallity.

For sure, Rings. Words and numbers truly are fascinating things. I flunked math in school though. Didn't see the use or need for it then. Had to learn the hard way and out of necessity as usual, mainly, being, learning to make change and being Embarassed

at the check-out lines.

Hello out there,

Aloha. Thanks Smoke_ Rings for your post and your testimony. You're honesty is much appreciated, especially coming from the background that you have shared with us. I've heard that some Pentecostals even prohibit dancing! (Like US Attorney General John Ashcroft?) You have somehow escaped into tolerance and respect. Thank cannabis for that!

Does anyone know where the word, 'pentecostal' comes from? What's its root? It sounds a bit like pentagram or pentagon. Origins of words can be really valuable in understanding their meaning today.

It's not necessary for Jesus to have used cannabis for us to have a cannabis ministry, but since it seems that he did use it, was anointed with it and asked his disciples to anoint others with it, WOW! That adds so much to our mission and credibility that it's a miracle in itself. Hallelujah!

I believe that we can safely interpret the Bible as encouraging us to become ordained (John 15:16) and to cultivate cannabis to make holy anointing oil to help heal the sick (Mark 6:13) and bless them as Jesus would have. Amen.

All the best to you,

Roger

The bible also says to give a little wine to those who are poor in spirit so that tyhey might forget there troubles for while.
I cant think right off where it is but I could find it.

Hey Roger,
Here it is, pente = 5. Pentekonta = 50 Pentekoste

Penta = 5 Pentagram 5 lines any figure having 5 lines

Hope that clears up Pente/Penta =5
