If i take one bottle of chilled hero lager beer,and then enter my bed and sleep...
Have i sinned
No, 1 Corinth 10 vs 25, Eat whatever is sold in the meat market without raising anyone questions on the ground of conscience. For the earth is the Lord's and everything in it.
Vs 31, So whether you eat or drink or whatever you do, do all to the glory of God.

Well,God created plants and animals for food.Food is a necessity but alcohol is for pleasure.You won't die if you don't drink alcohol but you will die if you stop eating.

Same bible says gluttony is a sin. Why haven't you stopped eating? wink

I do not mean to sound rude, but the writer’s argument lacks any form of logic. This is the kind of argument you make when you have been indoctrinated.

That's drinking responsibly and I'm more Christian than you will ever be.

I know of a religion which keeps you away from all these vices you are thinking about. Its verses are clear enough for even the most dullest to comprehend {clearly defines what is lawful and unlawful}. It's followers are on the increase having realised that it is the truth from their Lord The Most High, beside Whom there is no partner. Those who do not believe in it only do so due to the misconceptions they have been brainwashed to have for it. Do I still need to tell you I'm referring to ISLAM!{The unadulterated religion}.

Have you ever read a translation of The Quran to know what others actually believe in, Or are you afraid of it?

Accept the truth and don't be arrogant!

Not logical still. Same alcohol was made from plant which was given for food. Besides that, alcohol has medicinal and health benefits. So you see, to some it's a necessity too. Christianity never condemned it.

And no, I won't die if I stop eating. We shall not all sleep.

Even if you preach from genesis to revelation, who will change will eventually change and who don't want to change will not change.
Try your best and leave the rest for God.


Happy sunday
Happy new week.

It's still good to preach it. If I wasn't preached to concerning intake of alcoholic drinks, I may still be taking it today, so let the preachers keep preaching

Any wine that does not have alcohol is fruit juice. What makes red wine pure and real is the Alcohol content. The cream that you used to rub your body contains alcohol. The medicine you take also contains alcohol
Re: 7 Reasons Why Christians Should Stop Taking Alcohol by candelahria(f): 7:16am On Jan 13, 2020
It is logical.Whatever nutrients or medicinal benefits you think you can get from alcohol can still be gotten from other foods or plants.Do whatever suits you.

It's not about the MEDICAL BENEFITS alone Sir!

Intake of alcoholic beverages has a lot to do for humans than most myopic individuals can grasp!

Jesus used to take alcoholic beverages (according to God's word), it's manmade traditions and shortsightedness that caused such issues like this!

The Bible clearly said "alcoholic beverages gladdens the heart of the living". Of course many won't meditate on what is WRITTEN in God's word, instead they'll be following the thinking of mere humans like themselves!

For instance, God's son said " you must forgive whoever wrong you before expecting forgiveness from God" everyone knows how difficult this is. So Jesus added "if you're bringing your gift before God and you remembered that you're still harboring anything in mind against your brother, first drop your gift there, go and settle the issue with your brother, then after you've settled the issue you may return to offer your gift"

Hmmmmmmmmm, well i've studied those who used to take alcoholic beverages closely, and i've come to notice that after drinking, they're relaxed and the next thing is they start pouring out what is IN THEIR HEARTS because the alcoholic beverage is making him feel happy!
So if you're present and he has anything against you in his mind, the only thing that could help him keep it is if you don't say a word to him. You dare say a word and you'll start hearing what you never thought of that could make him hate you!
Then what happens? If you're a peace loving person, all you need to say is " i'm sorry, i never thought of it that way" and that will be the end!

For your information, this is the reason why most so called (born again) Churchgoers finds it extremely difficult to FORGIVE! smiley

If you need alcohol to be happy,then something is not right.The same Bible said to be sober and drunk with the Spirit of God.When you have the Spirit of God,He gives you peace and joy.It doesn't matter what life throws your way.

Lol, I don't take alcohol. But I also think it's wrong to tell Christians that they sin when they do.

Health wise, medical practitioners would tell you those that incorporate red wine in their meals live healthier.

The bolded is confirmed TRUTH!
If you're truly drunk with the spirit of God, that means you'll also bear the FRUIT of God's holy spirit!

I can only notice one single group claiming Christians that's producing what God's word called the FRUIT of God's holy spirit! Galatians 5:22-23

JEHOVAH'S WITNESSES!

The irony of this is that this group (just as it's not stated in God's word) never condemned the intake of alcoholic beverages!

So who really is DRUNK WITH THE SPIRIT OF GOD? smiley

They live healthier because alcoholic beverages makes you happy {Psalms 104:5} in turn it's the joy in you that determines your mood and your mood determine your health! Proverbs 4:23 smiley

My wife doesn't take alcoholic beverages at all before our marriage, in fact she sometimes feel like "can you totally abstain from it?" But since i'm always cool, collected and sound with or without my DAGOGO she ignored me. Later she noticed that i'm much more joyous and romantic after taking two bottles of ODEKU so she began complaining that i'm cheating.

That's how i initiated my woman into the club, and began training her how to SHAYO as well. My only regret now is after we're through she's always winning the midnight football match o!
