"Drinking Alcohol Is Not A Sin" - Reno Omokri by somebars: 11:10am On Jul 11, 2019
From: collinsuchendusblog.com


'Jesus drank wine, there is nothing like non-alcoholic wine. If it does not have alcohol, it is not wine. It is grape juice', these were the words of Reno Omokri as he explained that drinking alchohol is not 'ungodly'.



He went on to explain that, 'I am a follower of Christ and I don't drink. It is a personal decision. However, drinking alcohol is NOT a sin, nor is it unGodly'.

Not only did Jesus drink wine, He also turned water to wine, ALCOHOLIC WINE, and in Matthew 26:29, He told us we would drink wine in God's Kingdom, also known as HEAVEN.

Furthermore, the ceremonial consumption of wine is part of Jewish religious rites. So don't let any Pentecostal or evangelical church or pastor put a burden on you that God has not put. DRINK, but don't get DRUNK

Even Jesus turned water into wine at a wedding.

For Christians, drinking alcohol is not a sin, getting drunk is what is a sin

Any Christian pastor or man of God who tells his congregation that drinking alcohol is a sin is misleading them

Even the church of England offers alcohol based wine during the celebration of the communion in church

This is one of the reasons I want my Muslim and pentecostal brothers to respect the holy Roman catholic church.

The very religious institution God holds at a very high esteem. The pinacle of spirituality. When we teach you, listen carefully. It is not by accident that the pope is the most respected religious figure in the world. It is not by accident that wherever he goes, press follow him around. Whenever he makes a statement the world shakes.

You smoke indian hemp but alcohol is a sin to you. Devils laughs hard. Stop being a hypocrite.

What goes into a man does not kill him. What comes out of him does. If alcohol causes you up sin stop it or hence you die in your sin. If smoking cigarate causes you to sin, stop it before you die in your sin.

In Nigeria churches paying offerings and tithes with betting or yahoo money is sin..

But doing the same thing with the money meant for the development of a whole community is not a sin.

No wonder you live the Christian life gracelessly. Telling lies at will, impersonating, etc. But we have not so learned Christ. Grace teaches us to stay away from every appearance of evil. While/strong drink is a mocker so says the Bible. Ask Lot what made him to commit incest after fleeing from the destruction of Sodom and Gomorrah.

Well, the Prophet said 'whatever intoxicates when taken in great quantity is forbidden even if it is in small quantity'


So intoxicants are haram. grin.


Money gotten from intoxicants are also haran angry Some ignorant people should know that. The fact that some people who are perceived as Muslims forbid intoxicants but earn a living from it does not mean that is what Islam states. The actions of a sinful Muslim does not justify Islam. The message and the messenger are two different entities.


And yes, Wine will be drunk in paradise. Islam says so. But you may wonder why it is forbidden here on earth and permissible there. Please be guided.


The reason it is prohibited here is because of the effect which is intoxication as deduced from the saying of the Prophet quoted above. But there the intoxicating effect is absent in the wine in paradise. If the reason for prohibiting here is absent in those drinks, then prohibition is erased. So, they become permissible. Only stubborn people will disagree grin


So, this is what I have to say but Emperor Imes is coming to probably make it clearer to the world. Thanks for reading grin

Drinking is not a sin.... There is no place in the bible that says it is a sin. However getting drunk is a sin.

Gluttony is a sin in the bible which is similar to drunkenness. So why is eating not a sin?

God doesn't want anyone to be controlled by substances( drugs, alcohol, or even food) but be filled with His Spirit.

Self control is key.

Exactly how I would have put it!

But anyone who opposes this view to tell us drinking is a sin... should also tell us why eating is not a sin... After all, uncontrolled eating and eating excessively leads to gluttony!


Self control (a fruit of the Spirit) is what matters here bro...

wine is not alcoholic. wine is derive from the vine. judges 9:12-13 explained this

" And the vine said unto the trees, Should I leave my wine, which cheereth God and man, and go to be promoted over the trees?"

What the bible called strong drink is what we call alcohol drink.

wine is different from strong drink.

food isn't harmful, but being glutton is a sin, so drinking of wine isn't sinful, but taking too much of wine is sinful.

but taking a drop of strong drink is sinful.
Jesus didn't turn water to strong drink, he turn it into wine.

we use wine as Lord supper not strong drink

proverb 31:6 says, give strong drink to he who is ready to perish.

its obvious that this fellow didn't want to perish alone, but he want other to perish with him, that is the reason why he came to the public to say drinking alcohol isn't a sin and those who wat to perish with him applause him

Drinking is not a sin as in being deluded. It is a foolish act because alcohol is poisonous and it kills drinkers slowly. Especially the kind of bottled spirit they sell in rogue Nigeria these days that could contain up to 90 percent pure ethanol.

You are actually wrong. Bible warned against being drunk but does not forbid one from taking alcohol. Taking. Bible also did not identify the difference between non-alcoholic from alcoholic wine.

We are admonished to " Not be drunk with wine,wherein is excess..." Eph 5:18a. This verse actually tells you to drink but not in excess, and reference here is to alcohol.

I understand the zeal some of us have to serve God but , in doing so, let us not place yoke on people,such that was never originally intended by God.
