We are suppose to love GOD and love our neighbor.Would a person that loves their neighbor offend their neighbor with cigarette smoke or should the person that Is offended be stronger?
GOD died on the cross on our behalf,and rose again,we ought to love our brother.So then I won't say that the person offending their neighbor should be kicked out but If they are really saved,I would think they wouldn't want to smoke.

the hardest one to quit were the smokes...
Getting saved doe snot make on automatically just want to stop doing these things.....I would preach a sermon in a Methodist church , shake hands at the back door and then sneak out back light one up , swallow a breath mint just in time for lunch to be served...one day I finally turned it over to the Holy Spirit and said, Holy Spirit, I really have no desire for smoking anymore....make it so gross to me that I will never smoke again...the next morning , I had my cup of Joe, double sweet and lit one up and almost gagged....Never smoked again and its been many years....since then...taught me what covenant agreement was all about....
smoking and abusive drinking and drugging ends when you want it to....and we should not call i=smoking sin for people who might be having such a bad year that it is not the best day to try to stop smoking....
We have found in addiction recovery ministry, smoking is the last one to go...and it should be....and its ok if they do....give them a smoking area away from the kiddos, and self righteous....
