Addictions. How to Overcome Them.

I would like you to check out a Brother’s Website and Ministry. His Name is Chad Prigmore and his ministry is called http://www.recoveryreformation.org

Chad’s Site has a wealth of information on it, and one of it’s main topics is “Alcoholics Anonymous” and exposing it for what it is.

Gal 5:19-21 ” Now the works of the flesh are evident: sexual immorality, impurity, sensuality, 20 idolatry, SORCERY, enmity, strife, jealousy, fits of anger, rivalries, dissensions, divisions, 21 envy, drunkenness, orgies, and things like these. I warn you, as I warned you before, that those who do such things will not inherit the kingdom of God.” SORCERY: pharmakeia = medication (“pharmacy”), that is, (by extension) magic (literal or figurative): – sorcery, witchcraft.”

Please pray for his Ministry and the light it sheds on addictions and recovery!

I accepted Jesus Christ as my Savior back in the early 80s and began attending a Gospel-preaching church shortly afterwards. Three or four times a year the pastor would preach on financial giving to the church. He stated that although the New Testament doesn’t command tithing – giving a tenth of your gross income as the Israelites were obligated to do in the Old Testament – that tithing should be our minimum practice since we New Testament saints have so much more to be grateful for. I wasn’t familiar with tithing since I came from the Catholic church where contribution amounts weren’t mandated.

When pastors appeal for funds they often omit…
