TOPIC: THE DANGER OF ALCOHOL AND DRUGS
SCRIPTURE: Who hath woe? who hath sorrow? who hath contentions? who hath babbling? who hath wounds without cause? who hath redness of eyes? They that tarry long at the wine; they that go to seek mixed wine. Proverbs 23:29-30.
THOUGHT FOR THE DAY: Alcohol destroys one’s body system on earth and ultimately leads one to eternity in hell.
It has been established that one example of evil money are proceeds from the sale of alcohol, tobacco, dangerous drugs and other harmful substances. The consumption of these substances leads to the destruction of the lives and destinies of people.
When a person markets or sells products like Cocaine, Heroin, LSD (Lysergic Acid Diethylamide -a synthetic crystalline compound which is a powerful hallucinogenic drug), Indian hemp or Marijuana, Gin, Lager Beer, etc., that destroy people’s lives, the proceeds from the sale of such products is evil money.
You see, a major destroyer of the liver is alcohol. Alcoholic liver cirrhosis leads to Primary Liver Cell Cancer. When alcohol is taken in low doses, it excites the central nervous system, but high doses of it depress the central nervous system.
The major cause of Bronchogenic Carcinoma or the cancer of the lungs is tobacco smoking. When a person is making money out of destroying people’s lives, that money is evil money. When a person sells cocaine, heroin or other kinds of harmful substances and gets money as proceeds of these iniquitous products, such money is evil money. Alcohol destroys one’s body system on earth and ultimately leads one to eternity in hell.
So, the one who sells it to people destroys their lives here on earth and assists them into eternal damnation in hellfire. Nothing can be more evil than that.
Beloved, do not partake in or sponsor anything that would destroy people’s lives on earth and ultimately take them to eternal damnation in hell.
REMEMBER THIS: Alcohol destroys one’s body system on earth and ultimately leads one to eternity in hell.
