I used to enjoy a good smoke AFTER a visit to the buffet at Golden Corral. Actually, enjoyed a smoke too after church. Enjoyed the well-known buffet at Circus Circus on the strip in Las Vegas too. Enjoyed a smoke also while hitting a slot. Wheels started spinning and lights flashing. Don't smoke anymore. Never was really much of a gambler. Do enjoy eating though. While eating at the buffet I was showing off to my wife by biting into a Habanero pepper. Entire mouth and throat was on fire. Wife had a good laugh though. Well worth the cost of admission. It was a calculated risk.
hahahaha you are I are very much a like LOL

the temple of the Holy Spirit is the body.

Smoking will not send you to hell but it can get you to heaven sooner.

the end result is smoking is NOT Praiseworthy.

I have yet to hear a Christian say with Great exuberance

Thank you Jesus for the years of Camel cigarettes and the COPD and cancer of the lungs Thank you, Jesus !!!

I smoked for 10 years and did cigars for two years I paid out over 8000 $ to see it go up in smoke.

$8000 wow what could have God done with that money if I had sown it into Missions?

We must live a life that is Praiseworthy before God and man.

Does smoking and casual drinking strengthen one's witness?

I would think not. We do not as the world does but we are to do what doesn't grieve the Holy Spirit.

I agree that smoking is not at all wise or praiseworthy. I'm not sure much of what any believers do is praiseworthy. I don't really agree that it is a bad witness. It's just a thing. I think the mindset about smoking is all from the world and we just follow along. And if it gets you to heaven more quickly, how bad can it be? lol.. no, really, I believe the Lord has appointed a time for all of us to die. It's up to him. Pastor Chuck Smith from Calvary Chapel Costa Mesa (where my hubby and I met) died of lung cancer and never smoked a cigarette in his life.. so..

Jesus was sent to earth to save us through sacrificing his own mortal life, with all the torment that common mortals would feel. So, why would Jesus have a care about smoking? It was said that you should not do anything in excess, and you cannot do that with cigarettes. Also, Jesus chose to hang around with undesirables, often rejected by society, so why would he be judgemental and preach about tobacco, when he was not judgemental about wine? I do not think that Jesus should be used in political issues like cigarettes, obesity, and other healthissues. He spoke about our hearts and our soul, and how we treated and should treat eachother, not a dietition and personal trainer.

I didn't realize this was comedy central.
lol seariosly tho once a person starts smoking there spell bound and thats the truth, because the next day when they havent got a cigarette they curse. instead of smoking it then becomes mocking, which is the intension, smokers become mockers. Smoking is undoubtably a curse on mankind to. the witches who invented smoking wanted to mock us and defile us, mankind being stupid fell for it. reason being witches are ugly, they prefer it if you call them beautiful. same for cigarette smokers you must call it a beautiful habit or the smokers will curse you

I smoked for several years and when I decided to quit, I just quit. I never ever felt mocked. I think that's in your own head. Maybe you are reading too many Harry Potter books.

guandolf is an absolute legend of a guy did you know how awkward the awks where, its been rumored they smoked too
Now we've moved on to the Lord of the Rings? They are all definitely smoking something.. likely stronger than tobacco.

yup just look how the awks turned out, Guandolf had them sussed tho he smoked the right stuff. ill let you into a witches secrets once you smoke a cigarette a witch can possess you. so dont blame me if you start cursing omce your brain becomes oxergen starved and your sences get blocked up. you havent herd this from me tho.. theres witches watching all the time. ok mums the word remember witchcraft is beautiful, witches are beautiful, defiling your body is beautiful and poeple who smoke cigarettes have a beautiful habit. what you must do is find some guadolf tobacco that stuff is witch free
