I know. You don't have to tell me. Addictions aren't good for Christians to have. But I wasn't thinking of addictions like drugs/alcohol or anything like that.


I was thinking more along the lines of addictions that don't necessarily get in the way of our spiritual walk as Christians. For example:


I'm addicted to soda. Coca-Cola, Mountain Dew, Sunkist, etc. All I drink is soda. Probably not good for me. But you know....there are worse things I can be putting in my body, right?


So what's something you're addicted to? If anything, that is. :)

What we give ourselves to, we become, I give Jesus first place in my life.

I'm addicted to chocolate. There have been proven studies that dark chocolate is actually good for you! And although soda is not deemed to be the best thing for you, you are right..... There are far worse things you could put in your body!
I don't know many people who don't drink soda!

I used to be addicted to country fried tenderized deer steak tomato sandwiches .. I eat them breakfast, dinner and supper until I run out of deer . Now I haven't had a decent tomato in 6-7 yrs because of that GMO tampering crap .. My wifes uncle grew a garden with small but good ole time tomatoes but he's about quit and the last few years they got smaller every year .. Why me Lord ? :cry:

I didnt know 'mountain dew mouth' was a thing until I saw it on 'That sugar film'. there was one teen who drank it everyday and all his teeth rotted out, it showed him going to the dentist...and he still drank it even afterward. eek.

I used to be addicted to Ribena. It had heaps of sugar in it, although it tried to claim it had heaps of vitamin C so I thought I was getting more vitamins drinking it. but it was proven wrong by a school student in a science fair experiment! Sugar is very very bad for people. It is actually more of a drug and could be classified as one methinks.
I once ate a whole packet of sugus lollies and was bouncing off the walls.

I got over sugar thank the Lord but people dont realise. Thats why I dont go for celebrations like Halloween Im just like no. You wanna make monsters of people? Feed them lots of sugar.
