No Christian can drink alcohol and twist the
Scriptures to justify consuming such an unstable
and dangerous substance. Some people say that
beer is their "medicine." Realistically, it doesn't
work like that. The fact that you are calling a can
that says "beer" something else (medicine) is
telling on you. There are drug-stores all over the
place, you don't need beer.


I am also saying that beer is synonymous with
EVERY form of sin. Beer flows like rain through
house-gutters in a thunderstorm in nearly every
bar, gambling casino, strip joint, and evil
establishment on earth. This fact alone should
deter every Christian from drinking alcohol. By the
way, it's just as wrong for an adult to go into
such sinful places as it is for any child. Evil is
evil. Oh listen to me all you Christians...alcohol is
of the Devil, straight from the pits of hell!!! Don't
be a fool.

Ukutsgp:
"Who hath woe? who hath sorrow? who hath
contentions? who hath babbling? who hath
wounds without cause? who hath redness of
eyes? They that tarry long at the wine; they that
go to seek mixed wine. Look not thou upon the
wine when it is red, when it giveth his colour in
the cup, when it moveth itself aright. At the last it
biteth like a serpent, and stingeth like an
adder. Thine eyes shall behold strange women,
and thine heart shall utter perverse things. Yea,
thou shalt be as he that lieth down in the midst
of the sea, or as he that lieth upon the top of a
mast. They have stricken me, shalt thou say, and
I was not sick; they have beaten me, and I felt it
not: when shall I awake? I will seek it yet again."
-Proverbs 23:29-35


Alcohol is a Mind-Altering Drug
There is absolutely NO way for a
believer to justify drinking alcoholic
beverages. The Scriptures found in
Proverbs 23:29-35 clearly warn
everyone (Christian or non-Christian)
to abstain from the DANGEROUS
SUBSTANCE OF ALCOHOL. " Look not
thou upon the wine when it is red, when it giveth
his colour in the cup, when it moveth itself
aright. At the last it biteth like a serpent, and
stingeth like an adder. " Did you read that?...LOOK
NOT! God is telling us NOT to drink intoxicating
wine, not even to "look" at it (i.e., consider
drinking it)! For the wise Christian, drinking
alcohol is NOT even an option.
Very true sir...the average human being is susceptible to learning to do what is wrong(both biblically and morally)

For those who care t scroll to this page, let it be known to you that God does not discriminate about anything that is sold in the market place as in Roman 14. If God did not want us to use them He wont make them, it is your motive for doing anything that matters to Him not what you do, you may look pious b4 men and be a condemned person b4 God Your goodness as a Christian may be a Pharisaical goodness which God abhors.

Re: Things That A Christian Shouldn't Buy Or Sell by Pamcrest(f): 4:01pm On Nov 09, 2014
Op, I disagree with nos 1, 2 and 9. Nothing in d bible supports that Christians can't sell/ buy these. Even Jesus turned water into wine (don't preach non alcoholic wine here oh). Someone once said if u sell beer n someone gets drunk means u are responsible...I ask what of those selling knives, guns, etc. People should stop using yr own preferences as d yardstick for all Christians. So because I drink wine socially I am no longer a Christian, what am I then? grin

now read Psalms 137:9...When u read s scriptures knw that Christ said no one has seen d father at anytime but he who comes from d father...and d father is light and in him is no darkness at all....so not everything u read in the OT is God inspired...some are records of ppls thoughtz.

So Jesus was like a showman performing tricks to gain followers? He wasn't hanging around the prostitute and the tax collector cos he loved them? He was doing it to get followers?
Jesus was never a trickster...he performed miracles!...to show forth the power of the almighty God. and mind u, jesus wasn't the only one used by God to perform miracles,if u look at the bible so many prophets did. but jesus was a spectacular kind of prophet-the kind that would save the world from its sins(Messiah)....and of course,jesus loved everyone irrespective of who they were and are...that's y he died. If he didn't love he wouldn't have 'wasted his time' to suffer so much anguish all because of a world that doesn't appreciate his love#but u see, the significance of this is that u don't need to be perfect before he can identify with u...else we boast of our perfection. he uses the imperfect things to bring out his perfect will# take a flashback to the beginning,when God created man,he created him out of dust(sand).why didn't he use expensive wood,or Gold or diamond? Instead he used ordinary dust#hope I've answered u somehow?

In the spirit of "holier than thou" that gave birth to this thread, I'll add my own too grin

Don't buy/sell/use:

Coca Cola - massive exploitation behind it's production which has led to the loss of thousands of lives

Mobile Phones - Again this is linked to the proliferation of armed groups and the wars in DRC which has claimed more lives than the lives lost during WW2. I'm sure my beloved Christians don't want to be associated with that.

I can add more to the list but I'm sure you know where this is going...

1 John 2:11 But he that hateth his brother is in darkness, and walketh in darkness, and knoweth not whither he goeth, because that darkness hath blinded his eyes.

1 John 4:20 If a man say, I love God, and hateth his brother, he is a liar: for he that loveth not his brother whom he hath seen, how can he love God whom he hath not seen?

please can you with confidence show me where God said "my children, don't use gold for it is a sin before me" where as the city of heaven is made of gold. If gold is a sin, tell me why Jesus Christ the holy one was given GOLD, MYRTH and FRANKINCENSE at birth by the WISE MEN cos if it was bad He would not have touched it.

It is as sport to a fool to do mischief: but a man of understanding hath wisdom.

Proverbs 26:19

So is the man that deceiveth his neighbour, and saith, Am not I in sport?

Isaiah 57:4

Against whom do ye sport yourselves? against whom make ye a wide mouth, and draw out the tongue? are ye not children of transgression, a seed of falsehood.

Silly logic. Did the scriptures record dat Christ used d toilet, or dat He played and laughed? Wine given to d man at the table in canaan was said to b d best served at d occasion. D pharisees called Christ a glutton and drunkard(will fruit wine do dat). Paul wrote do not b filled with wine wherein is excess(will fruit.wine bring about excess)....? please read d book in ur hand and stop teaching like d blind who go to some school and claim they know d word of God.

lol. This one is a hard question. What i will say is science is being updated regularly as more and more knowledge is being discovered by the scientists. Currently, certain scientific books DO NOT edify christianity and may seriously shake a young christian's faith. If the science book isnt damaging to christianity in anyway and its not encouraging sin, then no problem in buying and reading such. I say this because there are various scientific books out there.
Hmmm.. So which ones aren't damaging to christianity?

1) was solomon a christian?? 2) how did he end up?? Didn't he say @ his old age that all was vanity?? God did bless him.. But the blessings derailed him
solomon was not a christian as Jesus christ had not come into the world then. Yes,all is vanity undeniably. He allowed the blessing derail him. But these points of yours will not stop me from wearing gold,because ts is a part of God's blessings. If God didn't want us using gold and all those precious stones and all,why did he create them,why did he put them in the earth.so u are saying God made a mistake givooioong solomon the finest of material things,even solomon didn't ask for gold and silver,he asked for wisdom but God gave him d wealth and riches. So my brother,dnt get it twisted,gold is a beautiful gift of nature.

sorry had to quote this to point out the error. 1 and 2 I feel should have been grouped under alcoholic drinks or better still wine spirit and beer. looking at this I would think any beer outside this listed can be sold by a christian.

WHERE WILL YOU SPEND ETERNITY?

1. Where will you spend eternity?
This question comes to you and me!
Tell me, what shall your answer be?
Where will you spend, eternity?
Eternity! Eternity!
Where will you spend, eternity?

2. Many are choosing Christ today,
Turning from all their sins away;
Heav’n shall their happy portion be;
Where will you spend eternity?
Eternity! Eternity!
Where will you spend eternity?

3. Leaving the strait and narrow way,
Going the downward road today,
Sad will their final ending be,
Lost thro’ a long eternity!
Eternity! Eternity!
Lost through a long eternity!

4. Repent, believe, this very hour,
Trust in the Saviour’s grace and power;
Then will your joyous answer be,
Saved through a long eternity!
Eternity! Eternity!
Saved through a long eternity!
