alcohol vs. the Spirit of God.

Ephesians 5:18

“Do not get drunk on wine, which leads to debauchery. Instead, be filled with the Spirit”

Page 16: The  Personal  restoration Pastor  Mark Schwarzbauer PhD Family Worship  Center

Ephesians 5:18• Alcohol leads to many destructive

behaviors• Proverbs 20:1 Wine is a mocker and beer

a brawler; whoever is led astray by them is not wise.

• God wants us to be filled with the Spirit INSTEAD (Greek ἀλλὰ (alla) vs. de (de))

• “Debauchery” is unsaved or unchristian behavior. (from ἀσωτία (asōtía) “a” & sotia – salvation.)
