A professed Christian who get the taste for rebellion and for the taste of the wine of Babylon, is a far, far worse drunkard than to simply sip literal wine. Seemingly harmless to the world and to the churches. Continues to reject light after having been both corrected and warned over time. Who can not wait to be let loose and commit another "crime", when the guardians leave the room for a little while. Getting a false sense of freedom, only to commit another offensive sin; treason against the highest law and the highest Lord.
It is not much better than Ted Bundy. In fact, it may even be worse. To continue rejecting light, could soon end up as the worst offense of all in the entire Universe: total blasphemy against the holy spirit of God: the unpardonable sin.
We see this very act and thought pattern, on both sides. To the left and to the right. Both politically and religiously. Convincing themselves they work for a higher good. Deceiving themselves and others.
Rebellion is as the sin of witchcraft. (1 Samuel 15:23). Acts, worship and battling with the lesser magic of this world: the unholy spirit = the spirit of this world. The law and spirit of the flesh, of death (Romans 8:2)
The natural heart is deceitful above all things, and desperately wicked. Who can know it.... (Jeremiah 17:9) Broad path:
- All roads except: the straight and narrow path of the cross.
- The law of the flesh/letter/world/death
Leads to:
• Promiscuity
• Licentiousness
• Debauchery
• Indulgences
• immorality

Galatians 5:19
"Now the works of the flesh are evident: sexual immorality, impurity, sensuality,"
1 Corinthians 10:13
"No temptation has overtaken you that is not common to man. God is faithful, and he will not let you be tempted beyond your ability, but with the temptation he will also provide the way of escape, that you may be able to endure it."
Colossians 3:5
"Put to death therefore what is earthly in you: sexual immorality, impurity, passion, evil desire, and covetousness, which is idolatry."
1.Tess.4:3-5
"For this is the will of God, your sanctification:that you abstain from sexual immorality; that each one of you know how to control hi own body in holiness and honor, not in the passion of lust like the Gentiles who do not know God;"
The road to redemption, and the road to perdition, happens step by step. ....But it can happen fast.
"The final movements will be rapid ones..."
How it ends, for you, depends on the direction in which you move.
