Step 12 - Having had a spiritual awakening as the result of these steps, we tried to carry this message to others and to practice these priniciples in all our affairs

Mat 3:1  In those days came John the Baptist, preaching in the wilderness of Judea, 
Mat 3:2  And saying, Repent: for the kingdom of heaven is at hand. 
Mat 3:3  For this is he that was spoken of by the prophet Isaiah, saying,  The voice of one crying in the wilderness, Prepare you the way of the Lord, make his paths straight. 

John the Baptist was preaching and telling others according to what the Lord had revealed to him. He did not yet know the full extent of the gospel. He had not yet seen Jesus as the Messiah. Yet he was obedient in proclaiming what the Lord had revealed to him so far. This is a pattern for us, to carry the message that we have known from God to others, to the extent that we have known and experienced it to be from God. 

Jam 5:19  Brethren, if any of you do err from the truth, and one convert him; 
Jam 5:20  Let him know, that he who converts the sinner from the error of his way shall save a soul from death, and shall hide a multitude of sins. 

All of us are subject to erring from the truth. This is especially so for those who have been caught up in the lies of an addiction. As someone who has been seduced by those same or similar lies in our own addictive behavior, we can have an understanding of what another person might be going through. It is our duty and our joy to do what we can to help others see the error of their ways and share with them the hope that there is a way out, through the grace and mercy of God.
