Please show me mercy, I am new at studying the Bible.But the fearful, and unbelieving, and the abominable, and murderers, and whoremongers, and sorcerers, and idolaters, and all liars, shall have their part in the lake which burneth with fire and brimstone: which is the second death. Revelation 21:8 (KJV)The Greek word pharmakos is translated as "sorcerers". Pharmakos is related to the word "pharmaceuticals"Pharma= Drugs Ceutica= RemedySo sorcery is somehow related to using drugs. Are we not suppose to find peace, happiness, and strength with God and only God? Isn't God a jealous God? Of course this included recreational drug use and alcohol. People that use these drugs are mostly seeking the same things Jesus has offered for free.I realize this is saying something very controversial in todays word, where the pharmaceutical industry is one of the biggest in the world. But is the industry on Gods side or the worlds? There is evidence to support both sides. One saying they are healing people from sickness. The other claiming money and power are the main goals and a lot of the drugs do more harm than good.I use to use all kinds of drugs a lot, and let me tell you. It is very hard to live as Jesus did and allow the holy spirit to work in you while on drugs and even around the whole drug scene. Thank the Lord he saved me from my self-destructive life style.Please forgive me if I have made any mistakes here. The last thing I would want to do is interpret the Word of God incorrectly.
