Alcohol: He Got His Beer
One of our young men gave me the following experience. He said, "An old gentleman and a young man, who was the driver,
stopped at Ringgold, Georgia, to get a lunch. They asked for a certain type of beer. They were informed the proprietor did
not have this brand; so they left the restaurant and went to another. They gave their order with the call for this same beer.
On being informed that they did not have it, they left in a rage. The young man angrily said, "We will have it [calling
the brand] if we have to go to hell to get it." They then drove rapidly away toward Atlanta. In making one of those curves
their car collided with a beer truck loaded with the brand he had demanded, and there was a fearful wreck and crash. They
were both instantly killed and buried in broken bottles of the beer the young man had demanded."
He got his beer, and doubtless went to hell in so doing. Some things God will not stand for.
