- 10 Reasons Why I Drink
-
- 1. I love to Vomit.
- 2. It makes my children respect me.
- 3. My wife loves my whiskey breath and beer-bleary eyes.
- 4. Drunkards and saloon-keepers make the best citizens.
- 5. It helps me win the safe-driving award.
- 6. I want to encourage juvenile delinquency.
- 7. It helps me think more clearly.
- 8. It's my way of saving money.
- 9. I hope to live in a 'flophouse' on Skid Row.
- 10. It's my way of obeying God, Who says, "Wine is a mocker, strong drink
- is raging and whosoever is deceived thereby is not wise." - Proverbs 20:1
-
- "I know when to stop!"
-
- Sure. You're smart. You can take it. You know when you've had enough.
- That's what every drunken bum said at one time. But the time to stop was
- before he took the first drink. Now he's lost his money, his home, his
- family, his respect, his health. And his mind's going. Visit him at 5th
- and Wisconsin, or on the Skid Row of your city. See him begging for money.
- Look at his eyes, his shaking fingers. Talk to him. He was a doctor, a
- lawyer, a real estate broker, a college graduate, and athlete. Now he's an
- alcoholic. He didn't want to be a wallflower. He wanted to sow his wild
- oats. He got too big for Sunday School. He listened to an atheistic,
- evolutionist, college professor educated beyond his intellegence. "The
- Bible? Full of fairy tales. Read Tom Paine instead. Or Robert Ingersoll.
- Or Eleanor Roosevelt. Or Harry Emerson Fosdick. Or sex books. You're only
- an animal. Live like one."
-
- Now look in the Mirror!
-
- You are that person - 5, 10, 20 years from now - or sooner. Unless you
- wake up. God declares, "Whatsoever a man soweth, that shall he also reap."
- Galations 6:7. You are on the toboggan. So is America. Americans drank
- 83 millions barrels of beer in 1 year. American spent in 1 year
- $8,760,000,000 for intoxicating liquors against $5,010,236,000 for public
- school education. Unless we stop, God will curse America!
-
- How to quit!
-
- Be converted to Jesus Christ, the Son of God. Accept Him as your Saviour.
- Ask Him to forgive you for your sins and make you a real Christian. Read
- your Bible daily and urge others to give their hearts to Christ. Write and
- tell us of your decision. We will send you a free booklet.
