Okay so I'm aware that these things are idolatry but scripture also mentions drunkeness specifically.
I feel like they are, unequivocally, sinful vices to do even in moderation, and this is the conclusion I've reached not too long ago. They are lusts of the flesh, right? I'm looking for some reassurance. I don't want to deceive myself in my heart, but that's why I made this thread in the first place. I've acknowledged that this is probably the reality here.
I don't want to be like the one who says "I'll do this now and repent later" because then I am knowingly incurring sin in my life and disobeying.
I just bought a pack of smokes (first one all week) I haven't had any beer or drinks this week, but tomorrow I'm thinking of drinking a few beers.
Is this bad?? How bad?? Do you drink yourself or did you give it up to sanctify yourself for the Lord??
