AND WE HAVE GOT JERRY SHARP. >> JANE: HELLO IT IS SO GOOD TO HAVE YOU. >> GUEST: THANK YOU FOR HAVING ME HERE. >> BOB: AND NOW, YOU HAVE GOT 12 STEPS AND WE HAVE HEARD OF THESE THINGS BEFORE, AND I THINK ALCOHOLICS ANONYMOUS, THEY'VE GOT 12 STEPS, HOWEVER THIS WOULD BE DIFFERENT. >> GUEST: YES IT IS, IT WOULD BE SUCH A BLESSING FROM THE LORD AND WHAT GOD LAID UPON MY HEART MANY YEARS AGO. THERE WAS A BURNING IN MY HEART, I KNEW THERE WAS SOMETHING MORE, AND YOU KNOW, ALCOHOLICS ANONYMOUS, AND YOU KNOW, AND YOU KNOW, IT HAD BEEN INFLUENCED, BUT THAT WAS A 12 STEP FELLOWSHIP, AND WHEN I HAD AN ENCOUNTER WITH THE LORD, I WANTED TO BEGIN GOD AND THE 12 STEPS, AND I WANTED TO BRING ITS GOD IN THE FATHER AND THE HOLY GHOST AND THE GOD OF THE BIBLE, AND WE WANT TO HAVE A GROWING RELATIONSHIP WITH THE LORD, AND WORKING FROM A BIBLICAL PERSPECTIVE, WITH PRACTICAL APPLICATION. >> BOB: A MAN, YOU HAVE HAD SUCH AN INTERESTING LIFE, TO SAY THE LEAST. AND CAN YOU GO BACK, AND MAYBE TELL US, AND MAYBE FROM THE TIME YOU WERE 10 AND WHAT HAPPENED FOR YOU? >> GUEST: IT STARTED WHEN I WAS 10 YEARS OLD, I WAS INTRODUCED TO DRINKING AT PORNOGRAPHY AS A RESULT, OF MY BAD FRIENDS, THEY WERE OLDER, AND DECISIONS BY PARENTS, AND YOU KNOW, I CAME INTO SITUATIONS WHERE I AM AT THE DARKNESS. AND THEN I WAS A PRODUCT OF A FAMILY THAT HAD BEEN THROUGH SO MUCH ABUSE AND WE DID NOT HAVE CHRIST IN OUR FAMILY. AND THIS IS WHAT DID HAPPEN FOR ME AND MY BROTHER AND YOU KNOW WITH THE APPETITE FOR SIN GROWING, IT WENT INTO DRUGS, AND SEX, GAMBLING, AND FOOD AND MANY OTHER THINGS, BUT AND IN THE COURSE OF MY YOUTH, I HAD BEEN IN THE CHURCH I DID NOT HAVE A RELATIONSHIP. AND THIS IS WHAT WE WANT YOU TO KNOW, IT IS NOT ABOUT RELIGION BUT A RELATIONSHIP. AND THROUGH MY RITUALS, I WAS MISSING OUT ON THE WORD AND DISCIPLESHIP BUT MY APPETITE WAS GROWING RAPIDLY THROUGH THE COURSE OF MY DARKNESS. >> BOB: NOW, ALL RIGHT, YOU GOT MARRIED, AND MORE YOU INTO THE DARKNESS THEN? >> GUEST: YES, YES SIR, AND THE PINNACLE OF MY WALL, IT CAME TO A HEAD, I WAS MARRIED TO A WOMAN AND YOU KNOW, AND YOU KNOW, YOU BRING HOSTAGES WITH YOU WHEN YOU ARE AN ADDICT. AND I INTRODUCED HER TO ALCOHOL AND DRUGS, IN 1994, I FOUND MY WIFE, SHE WAS THEN MY WIFE, AND SHE HAD BEEN AND SHE WAS DEAD IN MY BED, SHE WAS LIFELESS. I TRIED TO DO CPR, IT WAS LIKE YOU KNOW, AND RIGOR MORTIS WAS ALREADY IN NO, I WAS TRYING TO REMOVE THE BILE, AND YOU KNOW, THERE WAS NO RESUSCITATION I WAS CALLING OUT TO GOD AND I WAS LIKE IN A FOXHOLE, AND THEN, NOTHING WAS HAPPENING AND I DECIDED TO CLEAN THE APARTMENT AND THEN I CALL 911, THEY ARRIVED, AND THEY TRIED TO RESUSCITATE HER, AND THEN THEY TOOK HER TO NOW THE WINTER PARK HOSPITAL. AND THEN THEY SAID SHE WAS DOA, DAD ON ARRIVAL, AND SHE WAS LIFELESS. AND YOU KNOW, I CALLED THE FAMILY. I WAS DELIRIOUS THINKING I WOULD GO TO PRISON. AND MY MOTHER WAS PRAYING FOR ME, AND THIS IS WHY I TELL YOU NEVER STOP PRAYING. SEEK A REAL RELATIONSHIP WITH THE LORD, BECAUSE GOD SAID PRAY FOR YOUR SON AND THAT WAS IN THE MORNING, AND THEN IT BECAME EVEN SHORT, I WAS PLEADING WITH GOD AND THE LORD JESUS TO RESUSCITATE HER, AND I SAID YOU KNOW PLEASE DON'T GIVE UP BUT THEY SAID, WE WILL GIVE ONE FINAL THING, THEY GOT LITTLE HEARTBEAT. AND THEN THEY BEGAN TO GIVE HER OXYGEN, AND THEY TOOK HER TO THE ICU, AND THEY WOULD KEEP HER ALIVE, AND ONLY GOD KNOWS HOW LONG SHE WAS DEAD. WE HAD TO PRAY AND FAST, AND I DID NOT KNOW WHAT THAT WAS, TO PRAY QUICKLY? BUT WHAT? AND WE GAVE UP FOOD. AFTER ABOUT 28 HOURS, AND YOU KNOW, THEY SHOWED US THE ORGANS, AND THEY SAID WE'VE DONE EVERYTHING TO KEEP YOUR WIFE ALIVE BUT SHE IS DYING. AND NOW YOU CAN PULL THE PLUG AND LET HER PASS AWAY BUT IF SHE LIVES BY MIRACLE, SHE WILL BE A VEGETABLE FOR THE REST OF HER LIFE. AND SHE HAS SO MUCH BRAIN DAMAGE BUT NOW THIS IS YOUR CHOICE I FELL TO THE FLOOR, CRYING I THOUGHT MY LIFE WAS OVER. AND MY MAMA WANTED TO KNOW WHAT WAS WRONG, AND MY MOTHER SAID GET RIGHT WITH GOD RIGHT NOW, I WENT DOWN TO THE FLOOR, I SAID LORD JESUS, AND YOU KNOW, I WILL HELP PEOPLE WHO ARE DRUG ADDICTS IF YOU WILL SAVE MY WIFE, AND SHE WOKE UP FROM HER DEATH SLEEP, AND THEN SHE WALKED OUT LIKE IT NEVER HAPPENED. AND THAT IS WHAT JESUS DID. >> GUEST: AND THAT IS WHAT JESUS CAN DO, HE IS THE SAME YESTERDAY AND FOREVER. AND YOU KNOW, I WANTED TO DO THIS, AND I DID NOT KNOW WHAT I WAS DOING AND I COULD HARDLY HELP MYSELF, AND MY WIFE WOULD BE HEALTHY LIKE A HORSE TODAY, AND WE WERE DIVORCED, AND THIS IS WHAT THE LORD HAD DONE, NIGHT MADE A COVENANT AND THIS IS THE RESULT OF WHAT YOU ARE SEEING HERE. >> BOB: AND DID SHE EVER DO DRUGS AGAIN? >> GUEST: AND YOU KNOW, SHE WOUND UP, NOT WHERE SHE WAS. AND SHE WENT ON A PATHWAY IN CALIFORNIA, NEW AGE, AND SHE TOLD MY MOTHER AND SHE SAID THANK YOU FOR YOUR PRAYERS, AND SHE SAID SHE SAW HER SPIRIT LEAVE HER BODY AND THEN SHE SAID SHE SAW ME BUT SHE COULD NOT REACH ME. >> AND WE HAVE HEARD TESTIMONIES LIKE THIS BEFORE, OR THE SPIRIT WOULD LEAVE THE BODY. >> GUEST: AND YOU KNOW, SHE TOLD THIS TO MY MOTHER, BUT GOD DID SOMETHING YOU KNOW, THE GOOD LORD, THIS HAS AFFECTED ME FOR MY LIFE, I WISH I COULD SAY I WAS CLEAN AND SOBER BUT I DID NOT REMAIN THAT WAY. >> AND YOU KNOW, AND YOU ARE DOING SUCH A GREAT WORK FOR THE LORD. AT RIGHT NOW, YOU ARE OVERSEEING GOD IN THESE 12 STEPS AND YOU ARE AT A FAITH ASSEMBLY IN ORLANDO WITH MANY CAMPUSES. AND THIS IS WHAT GOD CALLED YOU TO DO. AND ME AT ABOUT BOTH, AND WE LOVE THE FORMAT OF THE BOOK BECAUSE AT THE END, I DON'T KNOW IF YOU CAN SEE THE HIGHLIGHTS, THERE ARE, THERE ARE---THERE ARE SOME DIFFERENT, LET ME SAY, LET ME SAY YOU MIGHT HAVE A PROBLEM WITH FORGIVENESS, BUT YOU COULD GO TO THE SCRIPTURES ON FORGIVENESS, OR REBELLION OR LAZINESS OR HOPE. AND EVERY TOPIC WOULD BE IN HERE, AND THEN AFTER THIS, YOU SEE THE DIFFERENT TESTIMONIES OF WHAT GOD WOULD BE DOING IN THE LIVES OF THE PEOPLE WHO ARE WORKING THROUGH THE BOOK BUT WHAT IS AN ADDICTION? >> GUEST: AND IF YOU GO BACK TO THE WORD, IF YOU WOULD GO BACK TO 2ND PETER, HE SAYS, YOU ARE A SLAVE TO ANYTHING THAT WOULD CONTROL YOU. AND YOU KNOW, AND WE HAVE A TITLE ABOUT ADDICTION AND WHAT THIS IS, AND YOU KNOW WE GO TO PROVERBS, AND WE TALK ABOUT DRUNKENNESS AND THE CHARACTERISTICS OF SOMEONE WHO WOULD BE DRUNKEN, I GO BACK TO THE WORD, AND I GO BACK TO THE WORD. AND WHEN THE LORD GAVE ME THIS, AND THIS WOULD BE SUCH A GREAT TESTIMONY,AND THE LORD BROUGHT ME BACK INTO MY FELLOWSHIP, WITH 12 STEPS, AND THAT WOULD BE 2004, AND THAT WAS THE TIME I TRULY REPENTED, AND MAYBE PEOPLE ARE STRUGGLING NOW. AND YOU ARE GOING BACK AND FORTH, BUT I TRULY CRIED OUT, I WAS REALLY SORRY I DID NOT CHOOSE THE LORD OVER THE DRUGS. AND THAT WAS 2004, THAT WAS AUGUST, AND THEN AT 11:42 AM, THE LORD CALLED ME TO SERVE HIM. AND HE SAID, AND I SAID I TOLD THE LORD I WOULD COMMIT MY LIFE TO HIM. I WAS TESTIFYING ABOUT THE LORD, I HAD THE HOLY GHOST AND I WOULD TELL PEOPLE AND YOU KNOW, THEY WOULD YELL AT ME, YOU KNOW, AND I WAS SO ELATED TO BE TOUCHED, AND PEOPLE WOULD BE BORN AGAIN IN THE PARKING LOT AND YOU KNOW THERE WAS A GREAT GROUP OF PEOPLE, AND I SAID LORD, AND WHAT DO YOU WANT? AND I AM NOT A PASTOR SO THE LORD GAVE ME THIS AND HE SHOWED ME HOW TO MAKE A CURRICULUM, AND THIS WOULD BE FOR IN THE CHURCH, OR ANY INSTITUTION WITH NO RECOVERY MINISTRY. AND YOU COULD FOLLOW THIS EASILY, AND THIS WOULD BE FOUNDED UPON THE WORD. AND THIS WOULD BE A STRUCTURE, AND IT IS NOT A --- AND YOU KNOW, THIS IS NOT RELIGIOUS, AND SO MANY FOLKS, THEY HAVE A HARD TIME IN CHURCH. BUT YOU KNOW THROUGH THE STEPS, WE HELP YOU IN YOUR WALK. BUT YOU JUST DON'T GO TO JESUS AND THEN WALK AWAY, BUT YOU GO TO CHURCH, READ THE WORD, AND THEN HAVE FELLOWSHIP, AND THEN YOU WOULD GO THROUGH THE STEPS BIBLICALLY AND GOD WANTS TO CLEANSE YOUR SOUL AND HEAL YOU AND YOU COULD WALK IN THE FREEDOM OF CHRIST AND WHAT HE DID UPON THE CROSS. AND YOU KNOW, YOU STAY WITH THOSE WHO ARE OVERCOMING THE HURDLES AND YOU STAY WITH YOUR GROUP, WITH FELLOWSHIP AND GOD IS SO WILLING TO HEAL YOU AND BRING YOU A NEW FUTURE. >> BOB: AND YOU KNOW, YOU HAVE BEEN INVOLVED, AND YOU ARE SELLING DRUGS? AND WHAT DID THAT DO FOR YOU? AND MAYBE THAT WOULD BE A WAY, AND MAYBE WHERE YOU WOULD GET EVEN MORE DRUGS? AND MAYBE YOU COULD GET RICH? >> GUEST: IT WAS A COMBINATION, ADDICTION CAN WORK THROUGH MANY THINGS, LIKE DRUGS, ALCOHOL GAMBLING, SEX, PORNOGRAPHY. AND YOU KNOW, THE SOCIAL MEDIA AND YOU KNOW, AND WHEN YOU GO OUTSIDE, YOU SEE PEOPLE SOCIAL MEDIA. AND YOU KNOW ALSO GAMING, IT IS LIKE A ADDICTION, AND YOU KNOW, THEY CAN PLAY WITH PEOPLE ALL AROUND THE WORLD, IN THE CHAT ROOMS AND THEY PLAY THESE GAMES FOR HOURS. AND MAYBE IT LOOKS AND HE SAID, AND THEY PLAY FOR MANY HOURS AT A TIME, THEY HAVE AN ADDICTIVE PERSONALITY, AND SO GOING BACK TO YOUR QUESTION. I WAS ADDICTED TO MONEY AND THE LIFESTYLE. AND THE DRUGS, BUT I THANK GOD, AND THIS WAS NOT GOD'S PLAN FOR MY LIFE, BUT I WENT THROUGH THIS SO I COULD HELP OTHERS. AND I WANTED TO HELP OTHERS, AND YOU KNOW, SOLOMON SAID, ALL OF THIS MONEY, IS LIKE JUST CHASING THE WIND, BUT WE NEED TO WALK WITH THE LORD AND THAT IS THE BEST LIFE AND SERVE THE LORD. AND YOU KNOW, THESE THINGS PALE IN COMPARISON, AND I LOVE TO HELP PEOPLE, AND NOW THEY ARE DOING THIS IN MANY CHURCHES ALL AROUND THE COUNTRY. >> JANE: AND LET'S TALK ABOUT THE POWER OF YOUR MOUTH, I HAD A FRIEND, AND YOU KNOW THEY WOULD GO AND THEY WOULD SAY I AM AN ALCOHOLIC OR A DRUG ADDICT AND THIS IS WHAT THEY WOULD TEACH THEM TO SAY, AND I KNOW WE HAVE A LITTLE MORE TIME, BUT MAYBE YOU COULD TALK ABOUT THIS, AND YOU DO NOT NEED TO CONFESS WHAT WOULD NOT BE IN THE WORD. >> GUEST: AND YOU KNOW, AND WE TALK ABOUT OUR IDENTITY IN CHRIST. AND THE SCRIPTURE SAYS, WE HAVE POWER OF LIFE AND DEATH IN THE MOUTH, AND YOU TALK ABOUT BEING REBORN, FOLLOWING CHRIST AND RECOVERING FROM ADDICTION. AND WE TEACH YOU, TO BE DON'T SAY I AM AN ADDICT. BUT YOU KNOW, YOU ARE A NEW CREATION, YOU ARE FORGIVEN. YOU ARE THE AMBASSADOR FOR CHRIST AND THIS IS WHAT WE TEACH PEOPLE TO HELP WITH THEIR GOD ESTEEM AND NOT SELF-ESTEEM. >> BOB: AS WE COME BACK, AND WE WOULD BE HEARING SOME MORE TESTIMONIES, OF THE PEOPLE THAT BEEN THROUGH THESE THINGS, AND THEY HAVE, OUT.

IF YOU'RE JUST TUNING IN, AND YOU HAVE MISSED, AND YOU MISSED A REALLY GREAT TESTIMONY. BUT YOU CAN HEAR THIS AGAIN, AND NOW, AND WE HAVE YOUTUBE, AND ALL OF THOSE THINGS, AND MAYBE IF YOU MISS THIS,. YOU COULD GO BACK, AND YOU COULD LISTEN AGAIN ALL RIGHT, JERRY, AND WE WERE SPEAKING, AND WE TALKED ABOUT THE 12 STEPS, BUT WHAT WOULD BE SOME OF THE STEPS AND HOW DO YOU, AND HOW DO YOU MAKE THAT INITIAL STEP >> GUEST:? SO 12 STEPS, AND WHEN YOU LOOK AT EVERY STEP AND YOU WOULD GO BACK TO THE BIBLE, YOU COULD FIND MANY SUPPORTING VERSES FOR EVERY STEP. AND IN ALCOHOLICS ANONYMOUS, AND THIS WAS WRITTEN OUT OF THE BOOK OF MATTHEW, THE SERMON ON THE MOUNT, AND ALSO JAMES AT FIRST CORINTHIANS AND THIS IS WHAT THEY TALK ABOUT WHEN THEY BEGAN THAT WORK. AND THERE HAD BEEN SOME STORIES BEHIND IT ALL. >> BOB: AND SO YOU TOOK THE STEPS, AND THEN YOU WOULD BACK TO THE BEGINNING? >> GUEST: AND YES, I WAS GIVEN PERMISSION THAT I COULD ADAPT THESE STEPS, AND I WENT BACK TO THE WORD, I FOUND MANY SUPPORTING SCRIPTURES AND WE WOULD WORK THROUGH THE STEPS,AND WE ADMIT, THAT WE CANNOT CHANGE OUR LIVES AND WE BECOME UNMANAGEABLE, THINK ABOUT ROMANS 7. AND PAUL SAYS THERE IS NOTHING GOOD INSIDE ME AND THAT WOULD BE MY SINFUL NATURE, AND YOU KNOW, I BET ANYWAY WHEN I DON'T EVEN WANT TO DO IT. AND THERE IS THE STRUGGLE EVERYBODY HAS, AND GOING BACK TO THE APOSTLE PAUL FROM 2ND CORINTHIANS AFTER HE HAD A VISION, HE HAD A VISION, HE WANTED TO BE DELIVERED BUT THE LORD SAID AT MY GRACE WOULD BE ALL THAT YOU NEED IN MY POWER WOULD BE PERFECT IN YOUR WEAKNESS. AND HE SAID I WANT THE POWER OF CHRIST TO BE INSIDE ME, AND WE NEED TO SMASH DENIAL, AND THAT COULD BE A WORK OF THE ENEMY BUT WE HAVE GOT TO ADMIT THAT WE HAVE THIS ADDICTION, AND WE ARE POWERLESS AGAINST IT BECAUSE OF OUR PRIDE. AND MANY PEOPLE STRUGGLE, AND YOU KNOW, THEY HAVE GOT A MASTERS DEGREE IN JUSTIFICATION, AND THEY COULD GIVE YOU A REASON WHY THEY HAVE SUCH AN APPETITE FOR SIN. AND YOU KNOW, AND IF YOU CANNOT ADMIT YOU'VE GOT SOME PROBLEM, AND IF YOU CANNOT MANAGE THESE THINGS, IT WOULD BE HARD TO GO FORWARD. >> JANE: IF SOMEONE WAS TO SAY, I DON'T HAVE AN ADDICTION BUT THE FAMILY SAYS BUT YES, YOU DO, AND EVERY RELATIVE AND EVERYBODY WOULD SAY, YOU HAVE AN ADDICTION, BUT WHAT WOULD YOU SAY TO THEM, AND DO YOU DO THIS OR THIS? AND DO YOU HAVE TO HAVE THIS? THAT WOULD BE AN ADDICTION. >> GUEST: AND YES, THAT IS WHAT HAPPENED TO ME, I WAS WITH A COUNSELOR I THOUGHT I WAS A BIG PARTY MAN, AND THEY SAID LET ME ASK YOU, JERRY, AND WHEN YOU WOULD DO THE DRUGS, DO YOU DO ILLEGAL THINGS? AND YOU KNOW AND MAYBE YOU HAVE A BAD NIGHT,AND YOU SAY YOU WANT BUT YOU DO, AND DO YOU BECOME A DIFFERENT PERSON AND YOU BECOME ANGRY. AND YOU KNOW, AND THEY SAID YOU ARE A DRUG ADDICT BUT I SAID NO, I AM NOT BUT YES, ASKING THOSE QUESTIONS, THAT COULD OPEN THEIR EYES TO SEE. AND WHEN WE TALK ABOUT FAMILY MEMBERS. YOU MUST BE PRAYERFUL AND THERE ARE SO MANY PEOPLE THAT ARE IN THE NILE, AND UNLESS YOU WOULD BE READY IT WOULD BE HARD FOR YOU TO HAVE HELP. AND WE WANT THEM TO BE SOFTENED SO WE COULD TALK TO THEM AND THEN THE LORD CAN SHOW THEM WHAT TO DO. >> JANE: AND DO THEY DEAL WITH FEAR? WOULD THAT BE THE LIFE OF THE DRUG ADDICT? >> GUEST: AND YES, THE DRUG ADDICTS YES, ADDICTED PEOPLE, AND WE TALK ABOUT THIS IN THE 4TH STEP AND WE TALK ABOUT YOUR FEARS, AND WE TALK ABOUT WHY THEY DON'T GROW IN EVERY AREA, FINANCIALLY AND RELATIONALLY, AND THE LORD SAYS DO NOT BE AFRAID. BUT THIS IS CRIPPLING FOR SO MANY PEOPLE TO HAVE FEAR AND SO MANY PEOPLE THAT SUFFER ADDICTION ARE SO AFRAID, AND YOU KNOW, THEY DON'T WANT TO SHOW WHAT THEY HAVE BEEN THROUGH. AND THESE FOLKS HAVE BEEN THROUGH THINGS, AND THEY WOULD MAKE POOR CHOICES SO THEY DON'T WANT ANYBODY TO KNOW. >> JANE: AND YOU WOULD SAY THEY WOULD GO THROUGH MAYBE STEP 1-3 BUT THEY DON'T GO ONWARD, BUT WHAT WOULD THERE BE ONWARD? >> GUEST: THEY CONSTANTLY SHUFFLE, AND THEY WILL TO SAY, I BELIEVE THAT GOD CAN BRING ME NEW LIFE, AND I WILL TURN MY LIFE OVER TO GOD. I WILL MAKE JESUS CHRIST MY SAVIOR, BUT THE 3RD STEP, YOU MAKE JESUS YOUR LORD. AND YOU KNOW,AND WILL YOU BE DANCING WHEN YOU TAKE YOUR LAST BREATH? OR DO YOU GO TO HELL? WHEN YOU DIE? AND ABOVE ALL, WE WANT YOU TO BE SAVED AND WE WANT YOU TO UNDERSTAND, AND GETTING BACK TO AND WHAT YOU WERE SAYING AT THE 4TH STEP AND WE TALK ABOUT A SINCERE AND WE TALK ABOUT A FEARLESS LOOK AT OURSELVES. AND WE WANT TO LOOK AT WHO HAS WRONGED US, AND MAY WE HAVE FOR OTHERS, AND THESE THINGS BRING ON, UNFORGIVENESS AND BITTERNESS AND HATRED AND ANGER. AND MAYBE WE DO LONG, AND WE BECOME CONDEMNED, BUT WE WANT TO GET TO THE ROOT AND YOU KNOW FOR ALL OF THESE THINGS, THAT IS NOT YOUR TRUE PROBLEM BUT WE WANT TO GET TO THE ROOT OF IT. AND MANY PEOPLE DO NOT WANT TO FACE THESE THINGS. AND YOU NEED TO HAVE SOME OVERSIGHT AND YOU NEED A GOOD CHURCH. AND YOU KNOW, AND WE WANT PEOPLE TO BEGIN MEETINGS IN THEIR COMMUNITY THROUGH THE CHURCH AND THEN THEY COULD HELP ONE ANOTHER AND WHEN THEY FACE THESE THINGS, AND THEN THEY COULD HAVE A SPONSOR AND MENTOR, AND WHEN THEY WOULD GET TO STEP NUMBER 5, THEY HAVE GOT TO ADMIT, THEY ARE ADDICTED, THE BIBLE SAYS WE SHOULD CONFESS OUR SINS AS WE COULD BE FORGIVEN AND BE FORGIVEN OF ALL WRONG, AND THE BIBLE SAYS CONFESS TO ONE ANOTHER THAT YOU WOULD BE HEALED. AND WE NEED THE CLEANSING AND HEALING. AND WE NEED SOMEONE TO LISTEN TO US, AND WE WOULD PRAY FOR THE HEALING OF THE SOUL THAT OF THE MIND AND THE RELATIONSHIPS. >> BOB: AND THAT WOULD BE STEP 4? >> GUEST: AND YES, THEN WE GO TO STEP NUMBER 5. AND WE WILL CHASE OUR LIVES, UP TO NUMBER 4, AND GOD IS ALL-POWERFUL AND HE CAN HEAL YOU OF EVERYTHING AND THEN 5--12, WE ALLOW GOD TO TAKE AWAY THE PAST. AND WE HAVE A NEW LIFE.
