Bible Question: I am taking Suboxone to treat a opiate addiction I have- My question is, If I wanted to start going to church and wanted to be saved and except the lord as my savior, Do I need to quit at once, or should I wait until my treatment plan is up, or can I go while I am being treated? And still be saved? |
Bible Answer: You can go to church, while completing your treatment plan. You don't have to quit your treatment to be saved or to attend churh. Salvation is obtained by grace through faith in the Son of God, not by works that you can do. God will give you power to put off sin and put on Christ through His free gift...the Holy Spirit. So believe in Jesus Christ and follow Him. He is able to deliver you, if you desire to be delivered. Whether you stop treatment or not, that is something to ask God. He is able to deliver you immediately, as a process, or through medical help...you will know the answer in your heart. I know many who were delivered by the powere of God from drug addictions immediately without treatment programs. Others have completed treatments. I've never had a drug problem, but I know God will take you as you are and deliver you from addictions. He came to set the captive free! |
