The best way in the world to deceive believers is to cloak a message in religious language and declare that it conveys some new insight from God.

I deepen my experience of God through prayer, meditation, and forgiveness.

Alcohol doesn't console, it doesn't fill up anyone's psychological gaps, all it replaces is the lack of God. It doesn't comfort man. On the contrary, it encourages him in his folly, it transports him to the supreme regions where he is master of his own destiny.

That God does not exist, I cannot deny, That my whole being cries out for God I cannot forget.

God preordained, for his own glory and the display of His attributes of mercy and justice, a part of the human race, without any merit of their own, to eternal salvation, and another part, in just punishment of their sin, to eternal damnation.
