And, of course, this includes the power to crush evil. That s what Jesus taught, and any addict whether it be to heroin or bad language, shoplifting or smoking, alcohol or anorexia, gambling or bad temper, pornography or pedophilia, incest or masturbation is forced to agree. Behind life-controlling problems is a spiritual power. It is evil, much stronger than us, and it ultimately destroys its victims. It s as though we have been abducted and enslaved by habits and evil forces.
Resistance is useless.
When you are a slave, if your master barks an order, you obey. He ll whip your flesh to shreds until you do. He owns you. Your only hope of escape from a slavemaster is if he beats you to death or if another master buys you. That habit has you by the throat.
