Wondering what God says about vaping and nicotine? Whether you’re thinking about vaping for the first time or looking for another reason to quit, this is a good question to be asking regardless of your religious background. Still, if you’re Christian and you want to know what the Bible says, you’re in the right place. In this article, we’ll explain what vaping is, break down what scripture has to say, and cover what conclusions we might draw.
Things You Should Know
- Vaping is the use of an e-cigarette to smoke and consume nicotine. While safer than smoking tobacco, it’s still not good for you.
- The Bible doesn’t mention vaping, smoking, or tobacco, so there’s some debate over whether vaping is a sin.
- Based on what the Bible says about addiction, health, and indulgence, there’s good evidence that vaping could be considered a sin.
