“Brother! Love your piece on how Marijuana is NOT pharmakeia, i agree. I know so many people here in the south who’s mind’s have been fried from pharmaceuticals. I do have marijuana from time to time and i know the lord lives in my heart and it is from God, not sorcery. You preach the truth and i dig the book you wrote very much. So much love to ya brother, your podcast opened me up to the scripture more and more. Prescription pills are a plague here in the south.” – Nathan (Facebook)

“I listened to your 30 minute program on Disclosure, and I agree with what you are believing concerning it. To disclose means to reveal, and I believe Satan is about to disclose (reveal) himself to be the only God who ever was. This also ties in with the rapture (the gathering of those who are alive and remain in Christ) as 2 Thessalonians chapter two addresses this first by saying, Now we beseech you, brethren, by the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ and our gathering together unto him.” The coming of our Lord, Jesus Christ, and the rapture, happens after the disclosure (revealing) of Satan, because the passage goes on to warn that his coming will not happen until there comes a falling away first, and that ‘man of sin’ is revealed. And I also believe the great falling away will happen at the same time, because of all the powerful lying signs and wonders that accompany Satan’s coming – like when he hovers over Jerusalem (the holy place) in his awe inspiring UFO temple….” – Kristine (Email)

My opinion: God made hemp and I find it very odd that two of the most useful plants on this planet, hemp and marijuana, have been demonized by Christians and politicians. My hope is that the church as a whole will stop believing and further perpetuating lies and propaganda about plants that God created.
