Very well said.....
I once told a man that was having problems with commitment that he needed to look at these very same people....He said he had "wandering eyes" I told him if he was not tempted he would be wiser than solomon....stronger than samson...and truer than david...when looking at it from that perspective we can see that God knows our weaknesses and is always willing to keep working on us if we let him

I used to be an alcoholic drug addict...and far worse....and yet Jesus set me free, cleaned up my life, and I am being used for God's purposes everyday.....It is wonderful to be free of Satan....and living ofr Jesus.
Thanks for the post...keep preaching it.

I know Noah got drunk once, but does that mean he was a drunk?
Apart from that, the point is well made.
