English term or phrase: poured away 'drink'
If we are really repentant and earnestly seeking the Lord, we too shall destroy all our 'idols'. Recount incidents of Christians who have destroyed bad videos and books, left clubs, ***poured away 'drink'***, and got rid of other unsavoury things as a token of their love for the Lord.

agree  JaneTranslates: Yes. Either of the other answers communicates the main idea, but omits the sudden conviction resulting in a positive, concrete act. No "as soon as this bottle's gone, I'm quitting," but an immediate, decisive act.

  -> That's it! The source text doesn't talk about good intentions nor decisions, but about pouring away. Many thanks, Jane - Bea
