Should Christians consume alcoholic beverages or use products where the active ingredient is THC?
The indwelling Holy Spirit who is the Guarantor of New Covenant relationship with the Father subsequent faith in Jesus as Messiah (Ephesians 1:13-14) works through the redeemed conscience (2 Corinthians 5:17) concerning daily sanctification/obedience in the New Covenant.
Alcohol consumption and intoxicants such as Marijuana-Narcotics, in any relevant quantity, negatively diminishes the acuity of the human conscience and therefore diminishes the anointing and control of the indwelling Holy Spirit in the life of the Christian; therefore, the consumption of alcohol-THC-narcotics works directly against our Creator’s will for one’s life in the New Covenant as we are commanded to be holy as He is Holy (1 Peter 1:15-17).
Daily Christian sanctification is the incremental process by which divine holiness is taught-infused within the life of the Christian as the Holy Spirit prepares the Christian for service now in this fallen World and in the New Jerusalem and therefore it is logical and reasonable to conclude that the consumption of mind altering-conscience suppressing intoxicants by the Christian is not wise or prudent. Our daily walk IS our testimony that Jesus is Messiah over our life. Let each be convinced in his/her own mind (Romans 14).
