The believer can eat food offered to idols?

It believer who thinks not, but if you read a little book I Corítios 10:23-33, and you will see that in the times of Apostle Paul had this discussion there were some brothers who forbade other brothers of feeding on food sacrificed to idols, still ban this practice continues to the point that "some pastors" to prohibit its followers from eating such food, so far as to say that if any believer to eat will be subject to sin, sickness and even curses.
Paul demystifies the subject for him as Jesus taught what defiles a man is what comes from the mouth of man and that comes in the form of food, Paul says that we still eat everything without asking whether it is sacrificed, "because the Lord is the earth and its fullness." If by chance, a "weaker brother" is offended, so not to offend his brother, then do not eat to avoid weakening his weak brother in the faith.
Food offered to idols have no power against the believer in Christ because in Christ there is no enchantment. Stop asking whether or not offered, do as Paul, as you can eat.

The believer can smoke?

Sure, provided you are willing to buy a lung cancer, otherwise it is best not to smoke. For me (personally) have never had any temptation to smoke cigarettes, smoking is also something that you are harmed without even take a hit, you just live or live with a smoker.
Usually people who smoke are children of parents who both smoked and smoke "accidentally" got used or were conditioned to smoking addiction. Others are products of the films, which feature heroes with a cigarette in his mouth as if it were "full" of beauty and social status, this only proves that the media can be addictive and lead to misunderstanding. Smoking should be prohibited in Brazil, thousands of people die every year as a result of smoking, it has to end.
The addiction to cigarettes is one of the worst there has smokers who stop buying milk and bread down a cigarette, and I know many others who want to quit smoking and failed to find a way out, because once a drug addict is one that persists for long time. Have become Christians and spend several years fighting nicotine is difficult to stop more willpower and help from relatives is crucial at this time.
Finally, the believer can want no smoking in the Bible about this recommendation, there is even some old pictures of the early Christians in Brazil who smoke cigars, but they were unaware of the evils of nicotine and other drugs present in tobacco.
Now some advice for you that you never smoked: Do not be silly.
And now a smoking advice to you: Do not be silly. Stop it. Pray and ask for prayer, and if necessary seek medical treatment.
Cherish your health is important.

A hug!

Who can participate in the Lord's Supper?

The Lord's Supper is biblical and I believe that all people who are partakers of Christ's body should be involved, because when you eat bread and drink the wine you're saying is part of the Lord's table (if you truly believe in their salvation ). But most denominations have made a meal of the liturgy and bureaucracy where it is prohibited the participation of people who are truly of Christ, two examples are nondenominational Christians (like me) and the disciplined within the church.
The unnamed are barred from the supper because they are regarded as non-Christian, because to evangelicals, evangelicals are not all that are ungodly, the Apostle Paul says that each one examine himself and eat and drink, does not no mention "itself is a member of any evangelical church and is in communion with his church" (not have it in the Bible).
The disciplined the issue is more serious, disciplined brothers are all members of a church that has committed sin and was discovered by the leadership, and thus cut was the right to participate in some liturgies of the church, including part of the meal, making Brother disciplined worse than Judas betrayed Jesus, that Jesus knew who Judas was, nor why it did not take Judas left the supper. The supper should be free to decide themselves what each one is or is not of Christ, each one examine himself.

What form of Baptism?

Sprinkling or immersion, which of the two forms is the Bible? It seems that Jesus himself was not too concerned with this discussion, biblically, for those fond of the letter, the Bible does not mention. Water baptism is not a religious rite for the promotion of debt to a higher class of the other, water baptism is a symbol of forgiveness of sins, this means that whoever has been forgiven and redeemed in Christ is saved (not the sin more condemns, because Jesus freed).
Water baptism, either by sprinkling or immersion, is the symbol of the true baptism in the Holy Spirit (which has little or nothing to do with the gift of tongues), this baptism is a symbol of new birth in the blood of Jesus, therefore the Holy Spirit is the sign and confirmation that baptism has happened to you.

God never leaves you

The parable of the prodigal son shows us a world-weary and ready to leave the great father's farm to enjoy life, then asks his inheritance to his father and travels to a distant land. There begins to spend all the fortune that his father had given him, the problem is that the money ends up bad employee just to the point of him (his son) have to work tending pigs and not only that more food is the food that remained of animals. That's when he realizes that his father's house was no food at will, and he decides to return home to his father, but as a son more as an employee. However when the child is approaching the house, his father sees him ragged pities and runs to meet him, embraces him and kisses him happy with his son who returned to the home. God is the Father of this story and you and I are the children (the child), we move away from the Father because of our sin, the father is waiting with open arms to hold you and kiss. Back to God! He never leaves you! Even in difficult times where it looks like you're alone. He will be with you feeling what you feel because you know Jesus. Agree with his Lord and you will have a change of lifestyle.
