Luke 12:45

“But if that servant shall say in his heart, ‘My lord delays his coming,' and shall begin to beat the menservants and the maidservants, and to eat and drink, and to be drunken.”

But far from being blessed is that slave if he takes advantage of his lord's absence to maltreat his master's property. Here is something totally unseemly, a slave behaving like a master and beating unnecessarily the other less important slaves, and using his master's goods to excess. He is going outside his station. Note how drunkenness is seen as the seal on his degradation. He has descended to the lowest depths. Here is a man who has got beyond himself, and thinks of himself what he ought not to think.
