    where is pharmacy or drugs referenced in the Bible?
  • Chris - In Reply - 2 years ago
    Hi Barbara. You can find a couple of them mentioned in Galatians 5:20 and Revelation 18:23. In both references, 'pharmacy', or 'pharmakeia' (in Greek), refer to witchcraft & sorcery. Those practising these abominable acts, often used medicine or drugs to induce an altered state of mind or body. However, with the progression of medicine, from earliest times till now, certain elements found in plants, animals, etc. could be extracted that had a positive outcome for a person's healing. These 'medicines or drugs' fall under the heading of 'pharmaceutics'. That is why we must always be aware of what we are taking, its real effects, & any conflicts with other medicines or existing health problems.
