Please how can I quit drinking alcohol? ??

Very easy and simple my sister...... Try and send a message to dis watzap no: 08124288847. I'm a living witness.

The bible told us to drink little for our stomach sake 1Tim 5 :23.

P0intBlank:
I don't know why people still think alcohol is a sin when it's not

Jesus turned water to wine (mind you anything called wine is by definition alcoholic)

Paul told timothy to take a little wine

and the final nail on the coffin is this statement by the master himself, "it is not what goes into the mouth that defiles a person, but what comes out of the mouth..."

My friends, drunk not drink, is the key word

exactly.the things wrong with Christians is lack of understanding and Windom to comprehend the bible but will rather use moral justification and.culture to interpret whatever they read

sarutobie:

The Bible made us to know that all of God’s creation is clean and good in 1st Timothy 4:4..so if I tap a palm wine from the palmtree and leave it for a few hours, it gets fermented, and if I drink it then I have sinned??

at all.you haven't sinned.It's when you drink too much of it that your body cannot accommodate that it becomes a sin

Godson00001:
Sometimes pple just talk as if they r nt educated. The bible talked about being drunk, not taking alcohol. There is a difference btw taking alcohol n being drunk. Christ even drank wine... But d bible neva said Christ was drunk. Drunkenness is condemned in d bible nt taking of wine or alcohol

I just want to tell you that....I really love you
Nothing is gonna change my love for you.



E better make I drink go hell than I no drink,no smoke, no womanize, no chache, but attend lie lie church wey go teach me so many nonsense. Imagine girl wey just collect kondo 10 mins ago enter church dey speak in tongues give message. Person wey semen still dey swim inside her canal.

Just believe Jesus is lord. Love God. Leave the rest.

My brother you can't even go to hell.
I don't know why people are committing sin and putting curse on their head by adding to and misunterpreting what was written in the Bible. I don't know where it is in the Bible that thou shall not drink or smoke. Especially that smoking( weed in particular ) aspect, weed is naturally created by God.
Bro enjoy your life to the fullest. Nothing do you. Just obey the 10 commandments. Drink anything and smoke good weed. We will all make heaven. Bless

It's a sin.
Wine is a mocker and beer a brawler; whoever is led astray by them is not wise.( proverbs 20:1)

Do not gaze at wine when it is red, when it sparkles in the cup, when it goes down smoothly!( proverb 23:31)

Prov 31:4-5

4 it is not for kings to drink wine, not for rulers to crave beer, 5 lest they drink and forget what has been decreed, and deprive all the oppressed of their rights.

Maximus85:



And Jesus turned water to wine. Alcoholic, not five alive.
Getting drunk is the sin. Even if you over eat or over drink water, it's a sin. Everything good should be done in moderation.

Bros, even drunkenness is not a sin. The sin is the unholy action you do while in the drunken state.

You are more prone to commit sin during drunkenness.

So both drinking and drunkenness are not sins.

Don't confuse people, tell them the truth, the act of drunkenness is sin not to drink. What did Jesus turn water to at the wedding at Canaan? I always use this not to judge, is the act of Temptation a sin or when you fall in temptation?
The above are nice Bible verses, but don't tag it to be verses that says you should not drink.


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.

Stop drinking only water, and use a little wine because of your stomach and your frequent illnesses.

I experimented over drinking water and my tummy was on fire for like 4hrs.the tummy pain was unbearable.so the point is everything you eat drink and wear should be done in moderation

Anything your flesh craves is in sharp opposition with what the Spirit of the Almighty desires. Check that drinking and smoking spot, what do people normally discuss there? Stuff that increase your awareness of GOD or otherwise?

Would you please quote where it says "donot drink wine" "drinking wine is a sin" "drinking wine makes a Christian unholy". I am tired of reading your kind of responses.

Proof its a sin to drink wine.

I got angry with a close friend of mine during my wedding bachelor's eave.

I had lots of bottles of whisky, brandy, rum, vodka etc in my car trunk. Whenever a friend or group desires one, i ask my best man to get them one. But my lady friend and my best man's s babe decided amongst themselves i should not get drunk. So they started hoarding the drinks even the one i was drinking disappeared. Friends where asking, i went to the car, but there was non. I got pissed and luckily i saw them coversing and celebrating their success in denying me of alcohol. They had no idea how pissed i had become. So i went to the bar, ordered myself a big bottle of Guinness stout. I dared them to come and stop me from drinking it. When i raised the bottle, i made sure it was empty before dropping.

I angryly barked at them to better get those drinks to those i planned it for before i will do something they will both regret. My lady friend never got over from how i addressed her that day.

Moral of my story is, those who dont drink constantly find those who do to be irritating and even go as far as committing sin to stop the act which itself is not a sin. If i were drunk, they would be good friends to stop me from getting more. But Jesus turned water to wine for guest at a wedding meanwhile my friends where hoarding wine from guest at my wedding. Are they Christians?

And bible verses that support drinking of wine.....
1 Timothy 5:23
23 Stop drinking only water, and
use a little wine because of your
stomach and your frequent
illnesses.

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

Psalm 104:14-15
14 He makes grass grow for the
cattle, and plants for people to
cultivate— bringing forth food from
the earth: 15 wine that gladdens
human hearts, oil to make their
faces shine, and bread that
sustains their hearts.

Isaiah 62:8-9
8 The LORD has sworn by his
right hand and by his mighty arm:
“Never again will I give your grain
as food for your enemies, and
never again will foreigners drink
the new wine for which you have
toiled; 9 but those who harvest it
will eat it and praise the LORD, and
those who gather the grapes will
drink it in the courts of my
sanctuary.”

Romans 14:20-21
20 Do not destroy
the work of God for the sake of
food. All food is clean, but it is
wrong for a person to eat anything
that causes someone else to
stumble. 21 It is better not to eat
meat or drink wine or to do
anything else that will cause your
brother or sister to fall.

John 2:3-11
3 When the wine was gone,
Jesus’ mother said to him, “They
have no more wine.” 4
“Woman,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. 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.” 11 What Jesus
did here in Cana of Galilee was the
first of the signs through which he
revealed his glory; and his disciples
believed in him.

Nehemiah 8:10
Then he said to them, “Go your way. Eat
the fat and drink sweet wine and send
portions to anyone who has nothing
ready, for this day is holy to our Lord. And do not be grieved, for the joy of the LORD is your strength.”

Deuteronomy 14:24-26
And if the way is too long for you, so that you are not able to carry the tithe, when the LORD your God blesses you, because the place is too far from you, which the LORD your God chooses, to set his name there, then you shall turn it into money and bind up the money in your hand and go to the place that the LORD your God chooses and spend the money for whatever you desire—oxen or sheep or wine or strong drink, whatever your appetite craves. And you shall eat there before the LORD your God and rejoice, you and your household.

Isaiah 65:8
Thus says the LORD: “As the new wine is found in the cluster, and they say, ‘Do not destroy it, for there is a blessing in it,’ so I will do for my servants' sake, and not destroy them all.

Matthew 11:18-19
For John came neither eating nor drinking, and they say, ‘He has a demon.’ The Son of Man came eating and drinking, and they say, ‘Look at him! A glutton and a drunkard, a friend of tax collectors and sinners!’ Yet wisdom is justified by her deeds.”

Please how can I quit drinking alcohol? ??

You definitely desire freedom by asking this question. I was myself once a drunkard until the awareness of God got magnified in my life. Dear, sincerely desire Jesus and His Holy Spirit, not religion oo. Sincerely call on him and freedom will meet you. There is nothing on earth as intoxicating as the Holy Spirit. This is the reason people like us don't count on liquors to be happy or ease stress. I release freedom unto you. Go and drink no more.

You're correct.

Like that's d only sin out there

74) Titus 2:2-3 - The older men and older women
of the church are to be temperate and not addicted
to
wine.

If you want to live like a Nazarite, that's fine. Remember they don't cut their hair or shave their beard too.

I drink and I'm still better spiritually than people who see alcohol as a sin.
next!

I respect myself a lot when it comes to drinking and smoking. I don't do it with people who are addicts. And besides I don't go to bar cos I don't know what a man Like me will be doing there( this is because a bar comprises of different set of people) I prefer company of real men in my home. Only those who abuse it will start saying r u b b i s h when high. All I'm saying is that drinking or smoking is not a sin. Thanks. And if you still have any proof to back your point sir, my n u m b e r is in my signature, w h a t s a p p me and let's discuss it. I might just gain from you. Bless

Modified
I just want to add this.
There's a difference between drinking , drunkenness and being a drunkard.
Knowing the best time to drink in the right proportion defines a responsible man.

People let's stop deceiving ourselves. We christians also were once slaves of these substances. The moment you gather drinking liquor, flesh is more magnified than the spirit. We are advised severaly in the scripture to be sober. Occasionally one can take liquor in very mild quantity provided it doesn't lead to misbehaving. Remember the Israelites who had much to drink and eat and then rose to orgies. In that state they sinned much against God.

eagleonearth:

Now you're getting the point. Those who ht drunk and misbehave are those who are committing sin.

eagleonearth:

That's exactly what I'm saying. They drank too much and misplaced priorities leading to sin.

Above all let's not categorize drinking or smoking ( weed ) as a sin. Excess of it is where sin comes in
