Addiction
Addictions of all types occur when self-control is given, relinquished, or sold out.
We are talking about alcoholism, smoking, drugs (either prescription or illegal), womanizing, fornication, pornography, even greed.
All addictions can be considered sins because they are in control and not God.
But there is hope. All addictions can be overcome. There is hope. It may take a long time to get out, but it is possible. God can forgive, and God can help.
