Remember this saying:
God is perfect
Man is not
Man made beer
God made pot.
Of course Jesus would smoke it! That's how he'll fund the army of the righteous and all that too.

Is weed a gift from God?...yes. The hemp plant has many uses including medicinal. In fact, it is probably one of the most versatile plants in creation.
Did Jesus smoke it? Most likely not...most major "translations" of the original accounts of his life were written before people believed smoking was a bad thing so you can't blame politics for a lack of any reference to smoking of any kind in the bible. If he did, someone would have written about it if only a vague reference in passing. But he did drink wine. I don't know when pot smoking started but it was probably after his life on earth given the lack of any smoking references in the bible. It doesn't say "be ye not high from smoking"...the bible focuses on alcohol abuse.
If you smoke is it a sin? That's between you and God. Does the admonition to "render unto Cesar" mean that you should obey the law? If so, then it is a sin to smoke pot because it is illegal. However, on a more basic level, the bible makes it clear that anything you put between yourself and God is a sin. For some people, this is alcohol...but it isn't a sin per se to drink, just drinking that interferes with your relationship with God and your ability to love others. I think the same thing applies to pot smoking. If you can smoke pot without harming yourself or others, then you just need to worry about that pesky law thing...but if your smoking is harming you or hurting other people, then it is wrong. Take your concerns to God...he's the only one who can answer that question for you.

The phrase 'Kaneh-bosm' in the Bible was once mistranslated as 'calamus'. It sounds closer to hashish. Jesus anointed persons's foreheads with the holy hemp oil and opened their third-eye chakras. There's also reference to it as an incense burned in Solomon's temple. Jesus or his people more often than not used incense as good. Sacred vegetation had been mostly used for spiritual purposes again then, they usually still are in these days each as a part of devout businesses such because the Rastafarians and the Zion Coptic church and in individual use. Hashish has been used for spiritual purposes for aeons. I would not be amazed if Jesus smoked weed, he do not need been the only prophet to have executed so.

I don't see how smoking weed is a sin. Marijuana is a plant God gave us just as tobacco is. The only way it could be a sin is if your mother and father say don't smoke it because that would fall under 'Honoring your mother and father.' So I don't think Marijuana is a sin.

He didn't do anything to harm His body ~it is the temple of the Holy Spirit~He was the perfect man
smoking is harmful whether it is "weed" as you call it or cigarettes
you know, what needs to be understood is that God hates sin because it hurts His creation
