In this season, we’re discussing social issues – problems that are facing our society and what the Bible has to say about these issues.

Drug abuse is a broad topic. It includes illicit drugs (marijuana, cocaine, heroine, etc.), legal drugs (alcohol and tobacco), and even prescription drugs. This lesson is not about the medicinal use of drugs but the recreational use of such substances.

Those who argue in favor of recreational drug use (including “social drinking”) will often argue that as long as they remain in control and do not use these substances in excess or to the point of harming themselves or others, it is perfectly fine. As a way to justify their behavior, it is common for those who want to defend drug and alcohol use to liken it to eating unhealthy foods.
