uprlghteous hliall not inherit the kingdom of god 1 cor 0t the heart of the leson scripture abounds in warnings ot the unhappy consequences that fol low the indulgence in strong drink this hurtful habit however is but one of many sinful practices which demonstrate the corruption of the heart ot the unregenerate man even were it possible to curb these propen sities and by turning over a new leaf or reforming live decently in the future this would not in itself deliver a man from condemnation and fit him for the presence of god there must be a divine work in the soul whereby the sinners life is transformed when he bows before god in sincere repentence and re ceives the lord jesus christ by faith as his personal saviour then he be comes a part ot that new creation of which christ is the head gal 615 the outward life becomes different when a new and divinely given life has been imparted eph 42224 verso by verse dtut 2118- a stubborn and re- bellous son nothing is more pain ful ifor parents than to and their children drifting into vicious halbits and refusing to listen to the admon itions ot those who would seek to guide their feet into paths of de cency and sobritty stubbornness we are told elsewhere is as idolatry because it puts self in the place of god and rebellion is as the sin of witchcraft or sorcery because it involves turning to false guides who are opposed to the way ot truth 1 sam 1523 verse 19 then shall his father and his mother bring him out unto the elders of his city unable to restrain their wayward son the unhappy parents were commanded in the dispensation of law to turn him over to the civil authorities that he might be dealt with according to the divinely given commandment it was their confession that their son had by indulgence of wicked and sensual habits reached a place where he was beyond redemption so far as they were concerned verse 20 he is a glutton and a drunkard shakespeare was right when he put into the lips of king lear the words how sharper than a serpents tooth it is to have a thankless child- nothing is more heartbreaking than to see the son of ones love and care drift away from parental guidance and in association with others of like tendencies become the willing pan- derer to unholy appetites which eventually make him an abject slave to habits from which he cannot break away and alas in many in stances from which he has no desire to be treed verse 21 all the men of his city shall stone him with stones that he die this was pure law unmin- gled with mercy it was the way whereby others were warned of the folly of such conduct as that of which the drunken profligate had been guilty and so was designed to free the community from the evil how different the new testament story of the prodigal subdued at last by divine grace and restored to a place of honor in the home of the father against whom he had sinned- luke 15 1124 he too was a stubborn and rebellious son but grace brought him to repentance and gave him to forgiving love prov 2320 wineblbbers and riotous eaters of flesh the revis ed version has gluttonous for riot ous once more the two evils drunkenness and gluttony are link ed to gether both speak of uttbridl- ed appetite selfish indulgence and are detrimental to both body and soul verse 21 the drunkard and the glutton shall come to poverty so ciologists have in some instances sought to show that it is poverty that drives men and women to drink and foster other evil habits some times this may be true but much more frequently it is these sins that deprive men of initiative and lead to penury and even criminality he who resolutely refuses to fall into such debasing halbits is far better equip ped to make the best of his circum stances and to be actuated by a laud able ambition to improve them when the love of alcohol predominates the will to achieve becomes paralyzed and all good impulses are destroyed this it is that results in the drowsi ness or lethargy which clothes a man with rags 1 cor 69 the unrighteous shall not inherit the kingdom ot god tho kingdom is here viewed in its spiritual aspect as righte ousness and peace and joy in the holy ghost rom 1417 none but those who have been constituted righteous through faith in christ rom 43 5 814 and who are made practically righteous through the new birth 1 john 3710 enter into and enjoy these blessings verse 10 nor thieves nor cov etous nor drunkards shall in herit the kingdom of god ithat there may be no misunderstanding as to what is included in tho term the unrighteous the spirit of god gives a list in this and the preceding verse of those whose evil behavior proves that they have no part in the the old home town by stanley kingdom of god among these we find the drunkard we are uotthere- fore to think of drunkenness simply as a misfortune or perhaps as a dis ease dipsomania for which one should not be held responsible drunkenness is a sin and a very grave sin indeed it is sin against god against society and against ones own body the next verse gives us the one infallible remedy for this unholy appetite verse 11 such were some of you but ye are washed but ye are sanctified but ye are justified some in the corinthian church had once been guilty of the wicked beha vior mentioned above but through hearing and believing the word ot god they had been washed and cleansed and by the power of the spirit of god and the allavailing name of jesus they had been sancti fied or set apart from sin to holiness and justified from all that once stood against them now cleared of every charge and washed
