Our lives should not be led by alcohol but by the Holy Spirit.
The bible says, "Since Christ suffered in his body, arm yourselves also with the same
attitude, because he who has suffered in his body is done with sin. As a result, he does not
live the rest of his earthly life for evil human desires, but rather for the will of God. For you
have spent enough time in the past doing what pagans choose to do—living in debauchery,
lust, drunkenness, orgies, carousing and detestable idolatry. But they will have to give
account to him who is ready to judge the living and the dead." (1 Peter 4:1-5)
