Do you smoke?

I am Timothy (strictly speaking Lt.Col. Sir Tim, but never mind) and you are abusing my words and my patience. You are acting as a bad guest in someone's house and generally like a total cad and bounder. Anyone with an ounce of decency would withdraw and cease such poor behaviour.

BUT...
Cornel, did [your] God say anything about "smoking" in 'His' scriptures?
Or anything that could be construed as even slightly connected with that topic ?
After all that is the very basis of this thread...
It is not a Bible-class.
Unless God [via you] has some relevant input here, then you have nothing useful to contribute to this thread. -
You can smoke in church.

'TIG', primarily in the Scriptures, God shows us some principles. Examples, both positive and negative, from the Bible does not refer directly to smoking, but warns us about the waste of our health, energy, time, money, and so on… Also, there are references to moderation, self-control, patience, etc.
Take it logically, not speculative...!

Cornel
There are many publications extolling all of these 'virtues', set against a list of various 'vices'.
Your source is not unique; or indeed original in that regard, having been pipped by many classical scholars and philosophers many years previously.
So... what specific unique insights does your source bring to bear on this particular debate [if any] ? -

@ 'TIG'. It is God who works in the person who trusts in Him, to will and to act in order to fulfill His good purpose. A man of true faith, quit smoking once for all life, not for 50 times…!

Many smokers do not know that, for human body, to DISHABITUATE from something, is needed a period of abstinence for approximately 30 days.
Most people who want to quit smoking, attempts to refrain for several days to 2 weeks, and, because their body does not feel well, due to of the lack of tobacco, they return to the old vice...
Try for 30 days, act with will, and you will not regret it!

Well, my sister-in-law had a stroke yesterday morning while dropping her kids off to the first day at school.
She is a heavy smoker.
Her Neurosurgeon spent much of yesterday attempting to dissolve the blood clots in here brain. Today her condition is stable; she is lucid but very confused and has a long road ahead with rehabilitation....
She is 41 years old.
Nuff said.
