I don't like . ( 1 Corinthians 6 v 12 )

I often wondered what Augustine meant when he said ,'love God and do what you like'.and so recently a person told me something,that threw light on it. A coal miner from Yorkshire  who was  a hard drinker,and  a tough person, got saved,he trusted  Jesus as his Saviour,the result was he stopped drinking,and he was changed,stopped going with his  friends for drinking sessions . Then one day he met an old friend,who  asked him why he stopped seeing him,and stopped going  to the their drinking hunts.So he told him he had become a Christian,so the man, said to him,so now you can't do this, and you can't do that.No its not like that,replied his friend I can do whatever I like. Well said the man, why have you stopped drinking , and his friend said, because I do not like it anymore.                                                                                                                                                                                                                                          Therefore, if anyone is in Christ,                                                                                                               he is a new creation, the old  has                                                                                                               gone, the new has come.                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                      ( 2 Corinthians 5 v 17 )
