1 Corinthians 6:9, 10 -- Do not be deceived. Neither fornicators, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor drunkards will inherit the kingdom of GOD.
Alcohol is a real problem for many people today, not just for simple, poor and uneducated people, but also for intelligent, respected people in high positions. They are fettered by what promises a moment's joy or the ability to forget...But little do they know that this moment's joy is leading them into deep bondage. Alcohol is a scourge of the human race.
To break free from this dependence and the burdens and involvement that have led to addiction, one must be honest with oneself and before GOD.
When it is a matter of bad habits, connections and sins, JESUS CHRIST is the one to turn to. HE wants, first of all, to make us aware of our undeniable un-righteousness before GOD and then free us from it. HE is not a miracle doctor. HE is the SON of GOD, The LORD. And what HE said of HIMSELF is true: If the SON makes you free, you shall be free indeed (John 8:36), that is, free from the power of sin, that human condition that causes misery and reduces us to wretchedness.
A true realization of one's condition is the first step for healing...Those who seek freedom from bondages of any kind sincerely, will then take the next step toward JESUS CHRIST.
