Alcohol And Christianity, To Drink Or Not To. by Nonso92(m): 8:25am On Sep 04, 2016
Many people believe that the bible has directed all christians to abstain from anything that is believed to have alcohol in it, but allows them to drink anything without alcohol. In the same vein, some people believe that drinking any quantity of alcohol is a sin, but to drink any other drink, be it juice or any other drink that does not contain alcohol, is no sin.

Some Christians have even extended this gospel of "wine only" to the extreme, by refusing even to touch any object already used for alcohol. t them, they believe that touching such objects, is also a sin in the eyes of God. On the other hand, these same people may freely touch or drink anything labelled wine since they believe that it is free from alcohol, in their own thinking.

There are many side effects when a perso consumes excess alcohol in the body, , and those who drink, are at a risk of being tempted of getting drunk, especially when there is lack of self control.
On that note, to avoid being tempted to drink out of proportion, i would advice that we stay away of alcohol.
