‘...drunkenness, revelries, and the like... Brethren, if a man is overtaken in any trespass, you who are spiritual restore such a one in a spirit of gentleness, considering yourself lest you also be tempted.’ (Gal. 5:21;6:1) Dare you patronisingly say, ‘I’m not like those big drinkers.’ ‘I can drink some.’ ‘I can handle it’? Your patronising excuses are prideful not spiritual.
