If i take my time, i am sure i will come up with 150 places in the Bible where it says a little wine is good for you. Note that most of the places you quoted in the Bible were talking of the dangers of getting drunk...you can drink but drink responsibly and don't get drunk.

Bros J converted water to shepe make man high.

Jesus Changes Water Into Wine

2 On the third day a wedding took place at Cana in Galilee. Jesus’ mother was there, 2 and Jesus and his disciples had also been invited to the wedding. 3 When the wine was gone, Jesus’ mother said to him, “They have no more wine.”

4 “Woman,[a] why do you involve me?” Jesus replied. “My hour has not yet come.”

5 His mother said to the servants, “Do whatever he tells you.”

6 Nearby stood six stone water jars, the kind used by the Jews for ceremonial washing, each holding from twenty to thirty gallons.[b]

7 Jesus said to the servants, “Fill the jars with water”; so they filled them to the brim.

8 Then he told them, “Now draw some out and take it to the master of the banquet.”

They did so, 9 and the master of the banquet tasted the water that had been turned into wine. He did not realize where it had come from, though the servants who had drawn the water knew. Then he called the bridegroom aside 10 and said, “Everyone brings out the choice wine first and then the cheaper wine after the guests have had too much to drink; but you have saved the best till now.”

Judging from 99% of all your critics, drinking alcohol is not a sin, neither is getting drunk a sin. It only becomes a sin when the after effect is unholy.

So if I drink a whole bottle of Bonny black, then fall on a couch and sleep off, I have committed no sin except if you gon call sleeping (the after effect) a sin.

Having said that, lemme get on with my bonnyblack tongue

It's a two-way street bro. Use your discretion, know when you've had enough.
1 Timothy 5:23
Stop drinking only water, and use a little wine because of your stomach and your frequent illnesses.

Ecclesiastes 9:7
Go, eat your food with gladness, and drink your wine with a joyful heart, for God has already approved what you do.

Mumu post angry Drinking alcohol does not in anyway imply getting drunk only when u get to ur saturation point or about to exceed it that d effect begins to manifest itself. Moderation is not a sin. And there is no where in the 10 commandment did God pronounce alcoholism as a sin neither did Jesus command his disciple to abstain from alcohol.
