Peritus: If your spirit repulse alcohol, then how do you explain 1 Timothy 5:23, which states; "Drink no longer water, but use a little wine for thy stomach's sake and thine often infirmities." |

wirinet:That is drinking for a good cause. My spirit repulsed it because it makes me volatile, and I don't have any good reason to take it. I've seen where a doctor recommended a glass of wine per day to a heart patient, and that was absolutely right. |

YelloweWest: Father, please in your mercy comfort this family in this time of loss. It is always so hard to understand when one is called home so young and that pain of the loss is so very great. Father...draw them near to you and minister to them.. I pray that all are saved and that they know therefore they will see her again in heaven. Father...while we know they must grieve, I pray that your presence and your love will be felt by this family to help to get them through it and that in time their love for her and theirs for them will be a joy to recall. In Jesus name...Amen! 1 Like |

sarzy:Don't mind him. That is how people take off on the lane of extremism. Christ was clear in His words and the whole new testament is enough to adumbrate his words. I could remember when some extremists said that computer was "devil's box" and a ploy to sway believers. Now, they all use it for good. Extremism is as bad as lukewarmness. |

Give wine to fools thus says His word..Remember that the wise fears the Lord & would never indulge in such a thing..Noah got drunk & cursed his grandchild..a child who did not offend him.. Lot got drunk and slept with his own daughters. Better they don't taste wine than for them to experience the disaster they fell into..Prevention is better than cure. |

Yes it can. I knw many people will hide under d fact that Jesus turned water to wine to drink Alcohol. But d fact is: Did d bible say he turned water to Alcohol Was it written in d bible that after d people drank it, they started feeling tipsy? Dnt we have non-alcoholic wines?? If u can answer these questions, then u shud knw what I'm talking about. You will all agree with me dat wine is TOTALLY diff 4rm alcohol. There r certain things we do nowadays which, within ourselves we knw is wrong but just because we r in d period of GRACE, we see them as norms. Well, I just believe erryone shud hold unto his belief nd let's hope that most of these things will nt stand against us on judgement day!!! #TeamSayNoToAlcohol |

alphyberry:It is wrong to see alcohol as sin in a bottle. I gave example of somebody whom the doctor told to be taking a glass of wine daily for his heart. Some extremists would cast and bind. A sister was advised to take a shot of shnapp to induce breast milk. Some have taught that alcohol is a spiritual poison, forgetting that it could save life. The same way some people came off against blood transfusion, wearing foot wears etc. The underlining factors are: small quantity and good cause. Both go together. 1 Like |

parisbookaddict:Read isaiah 5:22-30, You are doomed, heroes of the wine bottle..... You can take alcohol, but if you are a hero(drunk) you are doomed. Hence since we know alcohol can be addictive lets try our best to avoid it |

Peritus: Bros Happy Sunday! Only one bottle dey make you jonze?! LOL. One bottle for me na to open belle. I still have my strong will and sanity intact. My simple take: Alcohol in itself is not a sin to consume. However, watch it so you don't get drunk. Drunkards are the once that will not inherit the kingdom of God (1st Corinth 6:10). So the question is what quantity will make you drunk? Besides note that a drunkard is one that forms the habit of getting drunk at the slightest opportunity. Also the acts you do when drunk also can be sinful. So to be on the safe side of things, if you know you cannot handle it, fight to overcome the temptation of taking alcohol, not even a sip. For those that drink, avoid getting drunk. For those that just started (in order to measure the quantity that would get you drunk), once you get drunk, go to bed, then avoid alcohol entirely or at least don't get to the level to makes you drunk so you don't form the habit of drinking to stupor and becoming a drunkard, thus missing the kingdom of heaven. For all, abstinence is always the best (just like in premarital sex) so you will not tempt temptation. |

parisbookaddict: I'm with you on this. Jesus himself said, "It is not what goes into the mouth of a man that defiles and dishonors him, but what comes out of the mouth, this defiles and dishonors him" Matthew 15:11(AMP). The emphasis here should be moderation. |
