While citizens and politicians make decisions concerning patients, realize that making it easy for sick people to use cannabis is biblically correct since Christ God Our Father, the "ecologician", indicates He created all the seed-bearing plants, saying they are all good, on the very first page of the Bible (Genesis 1:11-12 and 29-30). The only biblical restriction placed on cannabis is that it is to be accepted with thankfulness (1 Timothy 4:1-5). And "But whoever has the world's goods and sees his brother in need and closes his heart against him; how does the love of God abide in him?" (1 John 3:17). Jesus Christ risked jail to heal the sick.
