CANNABIS, A SACRAMENT OF THE RELIGION OF JESUS CHURCH
MEMBERS OF THE RELIGION OF JESUS CHURCH ARE MANDATED TO USE CANNABIS SACRAMENT IN WORSHIP PRACTICES BECAUSE WE BELIEVE THAT SACRAMENTAL CANNABIS:
1. AMPLIFIES THE WORSHIP OF GOD
Sacramental Cannabis augments the worship of God. Nothing is more pleasurable than having a good time worshiping God. Jesus taught that the kingdom of God is within. Sacramental Cannabis helps one find and feel that God within. It is your good thought that leads you Godward. Sacramental use of Cannabis generally stimulates thought, evokes questions, and nourishes sacred feelings. Sharing sacrament with others is an exercise of religious freedom which amplifies the worship of God and is protected by the first amendment and federal law pertaining to the restoration of religious freedom.
"An experience is good when it heightens the appreciation of beauty, augments the moral will, enhances the discernment of truth, enlarges the capacity to love and serve one's fellows, exalts the spiritual ideals, and unifies the supreme human motives of time with the eternal plans of the in dwelling Spirit of God, all of which lead directly to an increased desire to do the Father's will, thereby fostering the divine passion to find God and to be more like him."
(p 1458, The Urantia Book)

2. HELPS CULTIVATE PERSONAL EXPERIENCE WITH RELIGION
Sacramental Cannabis fosters the religion of personal experience in knowing and doing the will of God and serving the human brotherhood. Such is the religion of Jesus, the Prince of Peace.
Many of the founding fathers of the USA cultivated Cannabis for many reasons including sacramental and recreational purposes. They shared that experience with the living spirit of the Prince of Peace within even as we share the Sacrament with Him today when we ingest it. Through his in dwelling spirit of truth and idealistic beauty, the Prince of Peace is able to be your personal spiritual life partner showing you the ideal way of living as you tread the pathway of spiritual growth.

Many people have been deprived of spiritual experience because our church has been constrained from sharing our sacrament as is our constitutional right.
No one has the right to deprive another of liberty the right to love and be loved and the privilege of worshiping God and serving others. It is self-deception which leads intelligent human beings to crave the exercise of power over other human beings for the purpose of depriving these persons of their natural liberties. The golden rule of fairness cries out against all such fraud unfairness and selfishness. No one has the right to deprive another of those privileges of existence conferred by the Creator including their sacraments.
