Man and God on Life and Alcohol in Christian Teaching
A religious lesson highlights the sacred value of human life and the body as a temple of the Holy Spirit. It argues alcohol harms man and society, urges honoring fellow humans, sacrificing for others, and honoring oneself by avoiding intoxicants. The piece connects Genesis creation, dominion, and New Testament ethics to condemn liquor use.
