Smoke\Drink

Hi I have one quick question,
Is smoking or drinking a sin?

Personally, I don't believe smoking is a sin though it is a health issue and could be a stumbling block to people who think it is a sin. Same with one or two occassional drinks but since drunkeness is a sin and alcohol is addictive many a man and woman has traveled down that path only to end up in alcoholism and the type of drunken behavior scripture speaks against.

"First man takes the drink, then the drink takes the drink, and then the drink takes the man."

My advice is to avoid them both but especially alcohol.

I say from personal experience that cigarettes are more addictive.I quit smoking and drinking and cigarettes were way harder to quit.

I was prayed over once for cigarettes at age 24 after I started following Christ and that addiction disappeared never to return. Same thing on a different occassion with alcohol. But I remember how damaging both of them were for me before being delivered.
