We are not a ‘’God’’ oriented program . WE refer to “God’’ as we understand him, only in the sense of something greater than ourselves that could restore us to sanity. You will always be an alcoholic just as I will always be. AA 12 steps, which are spiritual in nature, and if practiced everyday will over come the obsession to drink and enable the sufferer to become happily and usefully whole. I did for me, for 28 years , one day at a time. Key to becoming sober is an abiity to be honest with ones self.
NOPE: “if any man be in Christ, he is a NEW CREATURE, old things have passed away; behold, all thing have become new.” The alcoholic and drug addict I once was is now dead my friend, slain by the Christ — The Almighty God who alone can do that. No other god is acceptable, and to turn to any other god is to do more harm than good. That’s the lie of AA, any higher power is acceptable and you’ll have to remain an alcoholic all your life -— that’s a lie !!
