Alcoholism is a disease, jimmie. It is not a sin. I just wish people would stop painting everyone as sinners. If someone posts a particular sin they are struggling with, I understand it. I read the OP as being accusatory, rather than helpful.
You people's do not can stand anymore sound doctrine like is written to be in last day's
But do not give your selves to be like the last day's man, but turn your heart to the God.

Well, this is a Christian forum. We believe "all have sinned", as Scripture teaches.
You missed the point. Bad habits are diificult to overcome.
No. I did not miss the point. You used alcohol as your example. It is a disease, not a bad habit. It is not sin.
For example;
Type2 Diabetes can be controlled with nutrition and/or medication. If someone's diabetes is not under control it does not make the person a sinner. It makes them a Diabetic with blood sugar issues.
Bad habits are not difficult to over come. Disease is difficult to over come. Bad habits are not sins.
I did 65mph in a 60mph zone today,is this considered a sin? and if i dont confess will that be enough to relegate me to living an eternity in hell?
Oh yeah and i had a beer with my lunch today =Eternal damnation?

Bad habits are not difficult to over come? I disagree.
I didn't say that. However, all people are sinners, to some degree.
No. Not everyone is a sinner. I would find it helpful if you defined sin.
