On his "Pray In Jesus Name" program today, Gordon Klingenschmitt reacted to a recent World Health Organization report that found that excessive consumption of alcohol was responsible for over three million deaths in 2012, warning that drunkenness leads to demonic possession.

Citing 1 Peter, Klingenschmitt warned that "there is a demonic spirit of drunkenness that wants to kill you":
