If Smoking Is a Sin, What About Soda? | Episode 219

Apostolic Pentecostals have long taken a strong stand against substances that harm the body—tobacco, alcohol, illegal drugs, and the abuse of prescription medications. But if we condemn smoking and drinking for destroying the body, what about overconsumption of sugar, soda, and junk food which contribute to obesity, diabetes, and other serious health conditions?

In this thought-provoking podcast episode, Dr. David K. Bernard tackles a challenging question: what biblical and practical guidelines should Apostolics follow when it comes to physical health and the stewardship of our bodies? He also explores the rise of energy drinks and highly caffeinated beverages, especially among youth and young adults. Are these modern stimulants harmless pick-me-ups, or do they pose spiritual and physical risks worth considering?

Whether you’re trying to make healthier choices or understand the biblical principles behind lifestyle decisions, this episode offers clarity, conviction, and compassion.
