I too am a follower of Christ & had a very serious accident as a child that left me with several medical issues which causes back & neck pain, and the worst, migraines

For the past 6, years I have been a medical Cannabis user & it has been the only medicine that has completely killed a migraine & usually with only one 'hit'. In the past, I've been prescribed many pain Meds to stop the pain, including Demerol & Oxycontin, which I hated to use because of side effects & they didn't stop my headaches anyway, but they did take the 'edge' off. Cannabis has replaced these totally.

My problem is that God doesn't mention Cannabis, but does mention alcohol, & we are told to use it sparingly & not be a drunk, right? You can have one drink & not be 'drunk', but relaxed. This isn't possible with Cannabis. One hit & you are 'stoned' or there is no relief; there is no middle ground.

Where can I find any Bible passage that permits its use? I am not looking for opinions but concrete verification that it is permissible to use without sin. I hate the prospect of not having it for pain but my desire to obey God is my primary desire & am willing to 'try' to abstain if I can't confirm that He considers it acceptable. That said, I absolutely believe that God created everything that exists & He did say that everything He created was 'good' but all creation was corrupted after our fall from grace. Did this affect Cannabis making it prohibited now?
