Most Christians have some contact with an alcoholic. Just your simple information could redeem a wreck. We all have some friends and associates who, through an unwise selection of friends, imbibe too freely at times. We who claim kinship with the Friend of man are often not as friendly as those who are of the world. Our Church properties and auxiliaries' equipment are regularly requiring repairs or additions.
Many drinkers are such because they are unable to regiment their activities.
We are helping as we invite his talent and accept his contribution as we work together. We must present to the world the calm and confident peace which characterised Christ. This alone would challenge others to sobriety. Our life must be one of self-denial to the degree that though we might consider we are permitted to drink as a Christian, yet we must never do so in case one who is weaker should fall. As we see that our best is demanded, we must present one individual consistently before our Father.
