"Drinking Alcohol Is Not A Sin" - Omokri Quotes Bible Verse by nwekeugochukwu: 2:51pm On Jan 17, 2021
Reno Omokri has said that the act of consuming alcohol is not a sin, IgbereTV reports.

The former presidential aide said that people who preach against the drinking of alcohol are going against what the scriptures said in relation to the matter.

According to him, the act of drinking it is not a sin, rather, it is getting drunk as a result of the intake that’s a sin.

He wrote via his Twitter handle:

"Drinking alcohol is not a sin. Drunkenness is a sin. It is unscriptural to preach against alcohol. Wine is drunk even in heaven (Matt 26:29). Wine is medicinal (1 Tim 5:23). In fact, Psalm 104:15 says God created wine to gladden the hearts of men

And if thy hand offend thee, cut it off: it is better for thee to enter into life maimed, than having two hands to go into hell, into the fire that never shall be quenched:
Where their worm dieth not, and the fire is not quenched.

Flee From ALL Appearances of Evil.

The only thing wrong about alcohol is when you take it in excess. It makes you do things that you wouldn't do ordinarily.

Imagine beating your wife and children because you are drunk, or raping some random lady you see.

If drinking wine/alcohol is not a sin but drunkenness (as a result of drinking wine/alcohol) is a sin as you say, why drink wine at all?

To tempt yourself to see if it would lead you to drunkenness which you call sin?

It might not be a sin but it's obvious that it makes people to be more vulnerable to sin, not just drunkenness but fornication and the likes.

So drinking wine/alcohol is not wise. If you could avoid it, please do, because you could become addicted to it, and when that happens it would be difficult to stop.

God bless.

If eating food is not a sin but gluttony is a sin why eat at all? In case you don't know how dumb that logic sounds.
It's ironic you speak about my logic sounding dumb yet you go on to compare drunkenness with gluttony.

Do you have any idea of how people many people got raped, murdered, sexually abused, molested etc., because of drunkenness?

Maybe you should tell me how many of such atrocities have been perpetrated because of gluttony?

That's why drinking alcohol is not wise even though not a sin, but that's not stopping you or anyone else from drinking if you still want to. It's just an advice. Advice no be curse.

God bless.

Tell them oo. I don't know the kind of Christianity practiced in Nigeria. I don't know who told them that smoking and casual drinking are sins.

You know... Nigerian "Christianity"... If I don't like it and don't do it, then it's a sin... No matter what the Bible says. I consider any Christian that says drinking alcohol is a sin as either ignorant or is a hypocrite Pharisee.

Smoking igbo is also not sin...abi? No portion of the bible says smoking igbo, taking heroin or sniffing crack is a sin. In fact no where in the bible was child abuse explicitly mentioned as a sin...sin does not stop at the "thou shalt nots" in the bible, what ever is not of faith is sin!

The bolded is why it's not wise to take alcohol at all if drunkenness could lead one to commit such atrocities, but of course that wise advice could could be dumb to some!

Drinking Alcohol is not a sin but drunkenness itself but how do you measure how many glass of alcohol cause drunkenness? The best is avoid drinking.

In other words what Reno is saying, True! Drinking alcohol is not wrong but the addiction to it or the abuse
of it.
Re: "Drinking Alcohol Is Not A Sin" - Omokri Quotes Bible Verse by Nobody: 9:13pm On Jan 17, 2021
I still will not drink alcohol.

When the bible says "lead us not into temptation" (Matthew 6:13) it knew that from drinking alcohol, we gradually become drunk and drunkenness is a sin according to my bible(Ephesians 5:18, Galatians 5:21).

God is not an author of confusion. People are just interpreting bible they want it suits them.
