Bibletics 

 How can the Bible be included in politics, life, or law?  Did you know the Bible covers everything we encounter in life?  The problem is finding the cross references with what is needed to address an issue.  The Bible is a historic account of how people lived over the last several thousand years.  Although, today's society has many, many innovations people still make the same mistakes our ancestors made.  It is not essential to believe in God, the Holy Spirit or Jesus to use the Bible as a guide; however, faith can bring better understanding of the scriptures.  I will attempt to take current events and Bible cross references with scripture.  Let's start with Charlie Sheen; although, I must be careful not to judge the person, just the actions.  Judging is a slippery slope than can be hypocritical if care is not taken, please take this into consideration.

Proverbs 23 verses 29 -35

29 Who has woe? Who has sorrow? Who has strife? Who has complaints?  Who has needless bruises? Who has bloodshot eyes?

30 Those who linger over wine, who go to sample bowls of mixed wine.

31 Do not gaze at wine when it is red, when it sparkles in the cup, when it goes down smoothly!

32 In the end it bites like a snake and poisons like a viper.

33 Your eyes will see strange sights, and your mind will imagine confusing things.

34 You will be like one sleeping on the high seas, lying on top of the rigging.

35 “They hit me,” you will say, “but I’m not hurt! They beat me, but I don’t feel it!

When will I wake up so I can find another drink?”
