Admit all you want, but your problem will still be there.

“You” and “we” are powerless over addictions because of man’s innate sin nature that makes the body physically and spiritually out of control.

God and Jesus are not interested in “we” or “our” they want to hear the big “I” confess it’s weakness for alcohol/drugs and sins against God.

Telling a horde of heathen about your addictions in hopes that mass participation will drive the demons from your mind and body is not God’s way of healing your weakness.

Without the LORD’S help man’s mind cannot be repaired of cast out unclean devils or have prayers answered. Only the shed blood of Jesus can bring lasting deliverance.

We “admitted”, this does not necessarily mean “you” or “we” want Jesus to heal and deliver you from alcohol/drugs and sinful nature, you only hope God will hear “you” when mixed with “we”.

Using the “we” word is a sneaky way of ignoring the individual responsibility and conversion to Christ by focusing in the heathen religion of A.A. 12 steps.

Use of “we” in he A.A. program is a conditional lifestyle but sooner or later most fall back into their old slavery of chemical dependency, even if abstinent for 25 years.

2.) WE CAME TO BELIEVE THAT A POWER GREATER THAN OURSELVES COULD RESTORE US TO SANITY.

When did “we” and “our” take the place of individual believe in that greater power, who’s name is Jesus Christ?

Who convinced you that God would heal you by blowing cigarette smoke in each other’s faces at A.A. meetings, drink gallons of coffee (caffeine/speed), with donuts (sugar/downers) and over and over again rehash the pitiful stories of a life controlled by Satan by alcohol/drugs and sex?

God gave man one way to SANITY, GODLINESS and FREEDOM from the compulsion for drugs/alcohol, etc. It is Jesus.

When freed by Jesus you will daily fight temptations for violence, anger, inappropriate language, cheating, fornicating and acting without thinking, but rejoice that your desire for alcohol/drugs is gone.

3.) WE MADE A DECISION TO TURN OUR WILL AND OUR LIVES OVER TO THE CARE OF GOD AS WE UNDERSTAND HIM.

Enough with “we” how about just “you” surrendering to Jesus for everyone to see the change from sin to godliness.

If an immediate change (not years) does not take place in our life, you did not male a decision to serve the Lord and have not surrendered your will to God Almighty.

Who are the “we” that think they understand God? The bible says; “His ways are past finding out”. ROM 11:33

Whoever teaches about God without focusing on the shed blood of His Son and Christ’s cross as the central theme for freedom of mind and body is a devil.

You may have said the sinner’s prayer many times, but if your life is not changed to godliness you were only fooling yourself.

God did not what to live forever with sinful man so sent His Son Jesus, Pentecostal saints, and the Holy Ghost with evidence of speaking in tongues to show the chosen how to conquer his out of control will.

4.) WE MADE A SEARCHING AND FEARLESS MORAL INVENTORY OF OURSELVES.

Only God can know the mind of man enough to search with unbiased knowledge it’s true intent. The bible say; “The mind is deceitfully wicked and no human can know it”. JER.17:9

Fearless proof of self’s morality is: to be baptized under water in Jesus’ name, pay tithes and offerings, study the bible with a Pentecostal gift Minister, start each day with prayer in English and the Spirit language of Angels.

5.) WE ADMITTED TO GOD, TO OURSELVES AND TO ANOTHER HUMAN BEING THE EXACT NATURE OF OUR WRONGS.

The Bible teaches: individual sins must be confessed only to God in Jesus’ name not a person or group. When grouping acknowledgment of personal your sin with others you become as a Roman Catholic, not a new creature in Christ.

6.) WE WERE ENTIRELY READY TO HAVE GOD REMOVE ALL THESE DEFECTS OF CHARACTER.

You are ENTIRELY READY when character defects go by attending Pentecostal Holiness Churches, not rehab centers. If not you have been fooled by the devil into believing God is removing your character defects.

7.) WE HUMBLY ASK HIM TO REMOVE OUR SHORTCOMINGS.

Talking to God is not saying “we” or “our”, but with reverence “my” physical and spiritual shortcomings and sin to live a holy and righteous life.

8.) WE MADE A LIST OF LL PERSONS WE HAD HARMED, AND BECAME WILLING TO MAKE AMENDS TO THEM ALL.

Did “we” or did “you”?

Being willing is not enough, you must pay in cash or labor everyone you owe, or have stolen from or destroyed their goods, including parents and other family members.

This law includes your children of whom you may have robbed from years of support, if by only paying a dollar a month as a good will gesture.

9.) WE MADE DIRECT AMENDS TO SUCH PEOPLE “WHEREVER POSSIBLE, EXCEPT WHEN TO DO SO WOULD INJURE THEM OR OTHERS.

There is no “wherever possible” with God, you must make it possible if “others” involves you and by doing so could send a thief or you to jail that is a situation to be worked out by Jesus.

10.) WE CONTINUED TO TAKE PERSONAL INVENTORY AND WHEN WE WERE WRONG PROMPTLY ADMITTED IT.

Admitting wrong is fine if you get converted.

The unrelenting inventory to correct personal wrongs is an inexorable daily search of self to refrain from sex if single, or divorced, second marriage, cigarettes, gambling, drugs, pornography, unemployment and not attending a Pentecostal Church to pay tithes.

11.) WE SOUGHT THROUGH PRAYER AND MEDITATION TO IMPROVE “OUR CONSCIOUS” CONTACT WITH GOD “AS WE UNDERSTAND HIM” PRAYING ONLY FOR KNOWLEDGE OF HIS WILL FOR US AND THE POWER TO CARRY THAT OUT.

Petitioning God in prayer is not a collective “our-us” it works only when becoming His servant, slave and student by saying the “I” word.

Meditation benefits only when daily remembering how God’s laws will change your life and benefit others.

Again; never mind the “as we understand Him”, only the bible can give a true understanding of God’s will for you life.

When continuing in sins you will not have a conscious contact of what freedom evil is.

12.) WE HAVING HAD A SPIRITUAL AWAKENING AS A RESULT OF THESE 12 STEPS, “WE” TRIED TO CARRY THIS MESSAGE TO ALCOHOLICS/DOPERS AND TO PRACTICE THESE PRINCIPLES IN ALL OUR AFFAIRS.

When you are set free from sin and addictions you will not preach the A.A. 12 STEPS religion, but how you were delivered by Jesus and His blood.

Only when healed by Jesus will you have a spiritual awakening unto holiness, and as proof you will speak in tongues to praise Him.

When deliverance comes you will never again say, “Hi, my name is xxxx and I’m an alcoholic/doper or whatever but you will say;
