Paul told timothy to take a little for his illness and Jesus turned water into wine.

Versus

The admonition of King solomon,
Wine is a mocker, strong drink is raging, and whosoever is deceived thereby is not wise. Proverb 20:1


The big question?

Is it the same wine? Or another type of wine?

Do your research very well.

God bless you.

so I asked you which church you attend in your other thread critizing the catholic church and you ran away and came over here. lmao
Since you said in your other thread that catholics and t.b Joshua followers will go to hell, I asked you which church do you attend so that we can follow your heavenly pastor. Alas, Immediately I asked that question, you abandoned the thread and ran away.
Why are you so ashamed of naming your church, rather hiding behind your keyboard and attacking others.
If you are scared of naming your church, how are you going to convert the hell bound team of catholics and t,b Joshua team nah?

cant stop laughing.

I dare you to mention your church

The wrong thing abt taking alcohol is not the alcohol itself.

Alcohol is not a sin wen taken and u are still in control.

The only reason is wen it overrides ur senses and it's influence controls u....

Here, let it be recorded that i'm not saying u shld take enuff since u can still think...

We all knw there's no way we can think and we won't knw we are tIpsy. That is a sin.

Alcohol is a grt source of energy. Therefore taking a shot after or during work is nuttin bad....

But wen u drink to stupor is a sin

Deuteronomy 14:26
26 and thou shalt bestow the money for whatsoever thy soul desireth, for oxen, or for sheep, or for wine, or for strong drink, or for whatsoever thy soul asketh of thee; and thou shalt eat there before Jehovah thy God, and thou shalt rejoice, thou and thy household.

For those who like to deceive themselves that there is non alcoholic wine in the bible, the above passage states that believers can drink strong drink and there is no doubt that strong drink is alcoholic. In fact some bible versions use the word beer instead of strong drink.

Luke 7:33
33 For John the Baptist is come eating no bread nor drinking wine; and ye say, He hath a demon.
34 The Son of man is come eating and drinking; and ye say, Behold, a gluttonous man, and a winebibber, a friend of publicans and sinners!


Our lord Jesus christ also made it clear that he regularly used to consume alcoholic wine (hence the trem winebibber) so I really don't know were some people get this illusion that christians are not supposed to drink. The bible simply says moderation is key.

Liar! Go and check the meaning of wine, you would see that it must be alcoholic. If it is not, then, it is not a wine. Why, before the final product (wine) fermentation must take place. Wine is made from grape, I hope you know that. Jesus turned water to wine, and real wine it was, even better in taste. If it was not wine Jesus made, then, it would not have been called wine. Stop using bible to back up lies. Please.

Let me tell you sir, that there is nothing like non-alcoholic wine. A wine must go thru fermentation and the final product must be alcoholic. Wine is different from strong drink, still other contain alcohol. Grab a dictionary and look for the meaning of wine. Yet, nothing is wrong in taking wine or Strong drink, but ability to know your limit is very crucial. You are still very much on point though.

The more you know the bible, the more u see how stupid and ignorant a lot of Christians are. You wonder where they got their own version of Christianity from. Do u blame them? They are just voicing what their pastors shoved down their throats.

Wine must be alcoholic. Any form of non-alcoholic drink can never be wine. Juice and wine are two different thing.
