Smoking is a sin against the physical body (I Corinthians 6:19, 20), because it causes sickness, disease, and possibly early death. But your salvation is not contingent upon it. Romans 10: 9, 10 says: "that if you confess with your mouth the Lord Jesus and believe in your heart that God has raised Him from the dead, you will be saved. For with the heart one believes unto righteousness, and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation." The Lords desire would be for us to walk in freedom from this and any other addiction or unhealthful habit. Gods plan for our lives is good, and if we cut short our lives due to this kind of vice, we may miss opportunities of ministry and touching the lives of some He had planned for us to touch. |
