3. Proverbs 20:1 - Wine [is] a mocker, strong
drink [is] raging: and whosoever is deceived
thereby is not wise

5. The base for every deed is thought
and idea………….

6. INTRODUCTION
 Thought (also called thinking) – the
mental process in which beings form
psychological associations and models of the
world. Thinking is manipulating information,
as when we form concepts, engage in
problem solving, reason and make
decisions. Thought, the act of thinking,
produces thoughts.

7. CONT….
 Thought-provoking: interesting in a way
that makes you think of new ideas or
that changesyour attitude to something.
 A thought is fleeting, an idea is something
which you expel into the universe. Though
alike they are, both can cause negative
and positive effects.

8. CONT……..
 Ideas are more
likely to become
reality since there is
more energy put into
creating an idea.
Thoughts are not
always concrete and
can quickly change
with experience and
knowledge. An idea
is usual a concrete
concept, whether it
is true or not.

9. CONT……..
 Socrates is quoted as saying:
 “False words are not only
evil in themselves, but they
infect the soul with evil“.
 Matthew 5:13, 14 tells us, "Ye are the salt
of the earth...Ye are the light of the world."
1 Corinthians 15:33
Do not be deceived: "Bad company corrupts
good morals.“

10. CONT……..
 Romans 12:2 "Be not conformed to this
world: but be ye transformed by the renewing
of your mind, that ye may prove what is that
good, and acceptable, and perfect will of
God.“
 1 Corinthians 6:10
 Nor thieves, nor the greedy, nor drunkards,
nor revilers, nor swindlers will inherit the
kingdom of God.

16. CONT……..
 Substance abuse is a broad term for
addiction or inappropriate use of a
chemical substance to alter one's mental,
emotional or physical state, whether the
substance is ingested orally, injected
intravenously or inhaled. Abuse doesn't
always involve or lead to addiction, while
dependence is the therapeutic term that
defines addiction. Substance abuse
generally damages one's health, because
the substances are often extremely toxic
and dangerous
