I thoug :lol: t you knew better, poison ivy,poison oak and cyanide are all natural,it does nut mean they are good for us.
My question was is it evil? Is it not a crime to have it or grow it, by man calling it evil and against the law?
But I ask, Do you doubt God's Word when He says every green herb bearing seed is for us and for meat?
Gen 1:29-31
29 And God said, Behold,
I have given you every herb bearing seed, which is upon the face of all the earth, and every tree, in the which is the fruit of a tree yielding seed;
to you it shall be for meat.
30 And to every beast of the earth, and to every fowl of the air, and to every thing that creepeth upon the earth, wherein there is life,
I have given every green herb for meat: and it was so.
31 And God saw every thing that he had made, and, behold, it was very good. And the evening and the morning were the sixth day.
KJV
Meat does not have to mean that we have to smoke or use it for meals but that it serves a purpose for us such as healing.
The Word being the Wisdom of God is the Tree of life and the... Jesus is that Word of life for we are told that his body is MEAT for us he is the True Vine the great Physician that heals us, yet hopefully we understand he is not talking about cannibalism, but it is for MEDICINAL purposes for the Word of God is healing to our bones and health to all our flesh. That is why when Adam supposedly ate the apple and did to the Spirit, the Word of Life(Tree of Life)was then hidden from him hence the saying An apple a DAY keeps the DOCTOR away. The Word doctor in the Greek means Rabbi, Teacher of the Law and God told Adam the DAY you eat of that tree of G & E to be god without me.. is the DAY you shall die! Adam lived just under 1,000yrs because a DAY of God's is 1,000yrs and our health has been declining ever since. But when the end of the age had come... God sent His Word to become flesh and feed us the Meat of the Word again.. the very Word of Life.
Ps 107:18
18 Their soul abhorreth all manner of
meat; and they draw near unto the gates of
death.
KJV

55 For my flesh is
meat indeed, and my blood is drink indeed.

Prov 3:13-22
13
Happy is the man that findeth wisdom, and the man that getteth understanding.
14 For the merchandise of it is better than the merchandise of silver, and the gain thereof than fine gold.
15
She is more precious than rubies: and all the things thou canst desire are not to be compared unto her.
16 Length of days is in her right hand; and in her left hand riches and honour.
17 Her ways are ways of pleasantness, and all her paths are peace.
18 She is a tree of life to them that lay hold upon her: and happy is every one that retaineth her.
19 The LORD by wisdom hath founded the earth; by understanding hath he established the heavens.
20 By his knowledge the depths are broken up, and the clouds drop down the dew.
21
My son, let not them depart from thine eyes: keep sound wisdom and discretion:
22 So shall they be life unto thy soul, and grace to thy neck.
KJV
Rev 22:1-2
22:1 And he shewed me a pure river of
water of life, clear as crystal, proceeding out of the throne of God and of the Lamb.
2 In the midst of the street of it, and on either side of the river,
was there the tree of life, which bare twelve manner of fruits, and yielded her fruit every month: and
the leaves of the tree were for the healing of the nations.
KJV
Pray for the Peace of Jerusalem... in your life Wisdom shall show you the Way the Truth and the Life!
