These passages are from letters by Paul of Tarsus, encouraging those to whom he is writing to remember that once you become a Christian, you are a new person-new everything. This is exactly what PASTOR JOHN COLLINS, BRINGING BACK GOD means when he says you aren't a recovering anything. You are just plain you, a Christian you.Don't say you are a recovering alcoholic, you're not recovering, you are new in Christ. Don't say you are a recovering addict of anything (this can be drugs, food, cigarettes, whatever you are addicted to), you are the new you of Christ. You have given yourself a new life by accepting Jesus into your heart. You are finding your way to the cross, as PASTOR JOHN COLLINS says. Looking back at what you were, in a manner of worrying that you will go back to it or pick up those habits is of Satan. PASTOR JOHN COLLINSencourages you as a Christian to look at that life and use that experience to tell others what Jesus has done for you in your life. He helped you kick that addiction to whatever it was. Use that experience to help others find their way to salvation.
