I will repeat this vehement charge until Christian, until every man and women who claims that Jesus Christ is Lord and Savior walks away from Twelve Step programs, and every church moves to cast out Alcoholics Anonymous, Celebrate Recovery, and every other formulaic self-help program from our churches.
The moment that men and women understand that they are dead and in need of life, then they enter the eternal Sabbath rest of Jesus, and thus there is no need for the law, because God works within us by His Holy Spirit.
Bill Wilson, like many self-help snake-oil salesman, wanted to be God, he wanted to be a new savior for people.
He was anti-Christ, a man who had no religious affiliations, who was not a Christian, and certainly not an established member of an organized church.
He wanted to be God, even though he claimed that his program was all about people realizing that they are "not God."
Then again, Bill W.'s program worked pretty well, considering that he wanted the members of the program to see that they were not God in their lives. Bill would be there as their God, instead!
Sick!
Bill was anti-Christ in both senses of the world. He was against Christ, in that he wanted to replace Jesus our Savior and Mediator. He also wanted to replace Him and be the secular saint-savior.
His ministry is mired in lies and falsehoods. More people are leaving those rooms and finding room enough and more in Christ, Him Crucified, and every promise of His, which is Yea and Amen!
