And we always like to say is, if your carnal nature is running, you're managing your life from the bottom up, from the bottom up, because god doesn't want that carnal nature to be in control.
Imagine facing an illness that isolates you from society, much like addiction can. In this episode of 'Freedom to Choose', the hosts from Just As I Am Ministries draw an unexpected but insightful parallel between leprosy and addiction. They delve into the Old Testament sanctuary service, discussing how leprosy was once seen as a punishment for sin, and relate it to the modern struggle with addiction.
The conversation takes a deep dive into the carnal nature that can lead to addictive behaviors, but it doesn’t stop there. The hosts highlight that everyone has the power to make choices that lead to recovery, emphasizing biblical answers and spiritual guidance. Using the healing of a leper as a metaphor, they illustrate how faith can be a powerful tool in overcoming addiction.
The episode also tackles sensitive issues like religious judgment, reminding listeners that the power of choice is available to all, regardless of their past. Whether you're battling addiction yourself or supporting someone who is, this episode offers a unique blend of spiritual wisdom and practical advice, making it a must-listen for anyone seeking hope and empowerment.
