I went to the headquarters of a popular church in Abuja for a Thanksgiving Service. After the church service, there was a reception where there was an assorted alcohol on the list.

To my surprise, some of the clerics were served alcoholic drinks and they gladly indulged.

I am a born-again Christian because of my staunch faith in Christ Jesus and I also drink alcohol moderately. I don't believe I am morally wrong.


When you read Deuteronomy 14 from vs 22 to the end you will have an answer to your question and you will stop getting worried.

They are for those who like wines, but not alcohol. grin grin grin

If it has no alcohol, then it cannot be referred to as wine. Its better to refer to it as un fermented and carbonated fruit juice in a bottle, like Ribena in a bottle.

Also read ecclesiastes 9 vs 7

Go thy way, eat thy bread with joy, and drink thy wine with a merry heart; for God now accepteth thy works.

My friend, you didn't get the point there.
A Christian is a LIVING INNER COURT; A Living Temple of the HOLY OF HOLIES whose peculiar presence dwells in the Inner Court.

And what agreement hath the temple of God with idols? for ye are the temple of the living God; as God hath said, I will dwell in them, and walk in them; and I will be their God, and they shall be my people.
2 Corinthians 6:16 KJV

Am sure nobody was forced to endorse anybody from the bushes of Saudi arabia, before they can comment on Christian or jewish or many other religious issues.


Which is a forced and fake endorsement. Maybe that's the only way the saudi , Jesus envy, dreaming prophet, from Saudi Arabia likes his followers. I could be wrong. But it seems like he enjoys his followers to be forced and without rights, and cultish in its ways. Anybody wey dey talk to the Saudi prophet and im follower , make e advice am to change for the better.This is a humanly advise .

Why drink alcohol openly

How do you intend to help babe Christians from not getting drunk
Re: Is It Morally Wrong For Pastors To Drink Alcohol? by Evidenx(m): 6:39pm On Oct 23, 2022

False. That's your personal or cult doctrine and not Christianity. No where in the Bible did it state that you go to hell by drinking alcohol.
Then you haven't study enough.

I wasn't arguing with u about alcohol. Yes Jesus turned water into wine, but we don't know if it contained alcohol or not. So using Jesus as an example isn't 100% correct

If it is zero alcohol it is non alcoholic drink.

Proverbs 31:4-6 (KJV) It is not for kings, O Lemuel, it is not for kings to drink wine; nor for princes strong drink:
Lest they drink, and forget the law, and pervert the judgment of any of the afflicted.
Give strong drink unto him that is ready to perish, and wine unto those that be of heavy
hearts.

The bible also says, we should be drunk in the holy spirit not wine.

There is a church in Jamaica where they meditate with cannabis in the incense to communicate with the most high.

I have heard of such practices. I think moderate amounts of cannabis is easier on the body, mind, and spirit than alcohol.

95.2% of beer is water. You don't categorise beer as strong wine.

People need to know the difference between beer and alcohol.
95.2% of beer is water. Beer � also contain mineral elements, vitamins, hops, peptides etc which are good for health.
Once an average Nigerian sees you taking beer which is 4.8% alcohol by volume, you have become a drunkered.
