I finally found Origen's commentary of Romans :) -or I mean, what's left of it, what has survived the ages. And it's just a "preview", I still need to buy the books. But I finally found a translation of it online for free. I'm happy. My readings of the Early Church Fathers kind of stopped when I came to it. I didn't want to move on from Origen's stuff without going through that commentary. I wound up spending my time looking for a transltion if it rather than reading in the Church Fathers. But I found one now. I'm happy:)

write your representative and ask them to push the DEA to move forward with NORML petitions to reschedule cannabis. They are forcing us to live lies.

Prop 19 failed. keep your spirits up. Our patience will be rewarded.

Remember to vote today, and I will encourage everyone to vote their Christian values.

One more day till election. I wonder how Prop 19 is gonna go. If it passes, we've got our work cut out for us. It's got an achille's heel that can potentially make the penalties worse than what they already are.

Prop 19 was designed by people who want to make money. Money is the primary motive behind it. "sellouts" designed it. It doesn't set us free. And given the discrepancies in taxation, life could become much worse for potsmokers. If it passes, I'll run with it as best as I can, but I fear we'd be running the wrong way down a 10-20 year dead end road. All of our work will be for nothing.
I can't believe I voted NO, but I did. And I think I made the right decision. It doesn't set us free, not in the slightest.
If we focus on the FDA, we can make a significant impact. That's where we need to hit them, and we need to hit them hard and don't stop until they reschedule.
can't believe I voted NO. But I did and I think it was the right decision.

sure, the courts will over turn it, as is the case with any CA legislation...
JeffL on Wednesday 13 October 2022 - 13:28:56
I just decided to vote NO on Prop 19. And I will encourage others to do the same.
It's not an easy decision, but we're not gonna get it done this way.
trust, confidence, mine is in the Lord. And if you can trust me and my insane mind and enlightened education, then do so now and vote no as well.
it's the wrong way. We will be better off waiting for the right way to come up

Anxeity-depression-ptsd should all qualify, but I'm not sure. All I remember about Michigan was fighting forced blood tests (per Jerusalem council)
-that's why we wrote Prop 215 "for any illness", because we knew they would try to discredit qualifiable conditions.
Be careful in Michigan, They've got some of the most vicious drug sentencing patterns in the whole country. Do your best to follow the law, as best as the Lord allows you to.

Hey Abishai,
I'm sorry I didn't get back to you on Soboba Classic. I can't get out right now.

I live in michigan and was told by a counsellor I was a good candidate for medical marijuana. But can I get it for anxiety disorder or depression or P.T.S.D.? i know i can for cronic pain, which I also have. But I'm wondering about the other conditions.

There are some very great sources here and thank you for being so kind to post them here. So we can read them and give our opinion on subject.

Calling cannabis bad is saying God is a liar. He said it was good and never rescinded that.
abishai on Thursday 30 September 2022 - 19:53:40
For everything comes from Him; everything exists by His power and is intended for His glory. To Him be the Glory evermore. Amen.
How can saying that "Cannabis is bad" is glorifying to Jesus - the Creator?!

ask yourself, what does it profit you to hang out with people who are bent on following cultural values instead of the Word anyways? If congregations aren't sensitive and loyal to the Word of God on this, they are weak and will compromise any time the world comes against the Scriptures.
notwithstanding, even in this error, they're stiil a cut above the secular world that brought us this prohibition to start. Weak and sick, there's still a hope of their repentance, because those who believe will not perish.

But I know of no Christ centered congregation that will not take offense at a pot smoker. The stigma itself shatters any chance at trust and confidence within the Body, and as a result, potsmokers are alienated and detached from the congregations, just like we are in soceity.
it was a lonely world for Abraham. I myself have decided to just stay away from the Churches, because the Churches themselves get attacked by gossip slander and rumor, and they are divided and destroyed when the subject comes up.
Books, study helps, commentary, dictionaries, recordings of sermons; you can grow in knowledge and draw close to Christ, but the Churches don't want us there, save to try and convince you that abstinence from pot is what God wants from you.
Corporate worship and strong relationships are what we lose if we bring the subject up.

For you know quite well that the day of the Lord will come in the same way as a thief in the night. Now when they are saying, “There is peace and security,” then sudden destruction comes on them, like labor pains on a pregnant woman, and they will surely not escape.

FYI everyone, this isn't my webpage. This is Jini's work, and God bless her for it. This is one of the few places for me where one accord is possible, where I won't get browbeat over the one issue where I differ from popular Christian culture, and without a doubt it's my favorite site on the web. I'm not a moderator or anything like that, I just post a lot. I have no control to eliminate spam, move posts, etc.
speaking of Jini, I've been wondering if she's around, I've not heard or read anything from her in some time now. So say a prayer if you think about it, that she's well.
the people who host this site also host mine, so if spam becomes to much, I can send an email to see if I can get it cleaned up.
but say a prayer for Jini of you will, that all is well for her.
