Overcoming Addiction Through Jesus Christ (Second Edition) - Paperback

by America's Keswick Colony of Mercy (Author)

JESUS CHRIST WILL INSPIRE AND EMPOWER YOU TO EXPERIENCE VICTORY OVER ADDICTION.

This book depicts the lives of eleven courageous men who had formerly anguished over their sinful, addictive behaviors, which wounded many hearts and ravaged many lives. They were not able to stop in their own strength. Their help came from God's amazing grace. Every person who sincerely surrenders to Jesus Christ as their Lord and Savior will be transformed through God's regeneration. They will receive His free gift of salvation and begin a new, abundant life.

What this means is that those who become Christians become new persons. They are not the same anymore, for the old life is gone. A new life has begun! All this newness of life is from God. God brought us back to Himself through what [Jesus] Christ did. ... For God made [Jesus] Christ, Who never sinned, to be the offering for our sin, so that we could be made right with God through [Jesus] Christ.

- 2 Corinthians 5:17-18a, 21

How we thank God, Who gives us victory over sin and death through Jesus Christ our Lord! ... We were His enemies, separated from Him by our evil thoughts and actions, yet now He has brought us back as His friends. Jesus has done this for us through His death on the cross. As a result, Jesus has brought us into the very presence of God and we are holy and blameless as we stand before Him without a single fault.
