Did Jesus Drink Alcohol? Why Do Catholics Drink Alcohol? by Daejumong(op): 6:56am On Nov 01, 2024
Did Jesus drink Alcohol? Do u know wine in the Bible is alcoholic? The first non alcoholic wine was produced thousands of years after the death of Christ!

Matthew 11:19 “The Son of Man came eating and drinking, and they say, ‘Here is a glutton and a drunkard, a friend of tax collectors and sinners.’ But wisdom is proved right by her deeds"

In the above verse Jesus said He drinks alcohol and people were calling Him a drunkard! He was also eating and they called him a glutton(excessive eater)!

Jesus also turned water into wine at the wedding in Cana (John 2:1-11) and shared wine with his disciples at the Last Supper (Matthew 26:27-29) .

Wine in the Bible is alcoholic and not fruit red wine ! After the flood, Noah planted a vineyard, made wine, and became drunk (Genesis 9:21).
The Bible contains warnings about the dangers of excessive drinking, indicating that the wine was indeed alcoholic (Proverbs 20:1; Ephesians 5:18)

The first non alcoholic wine was produced in 1869 by Thomas Bramwell Welch, a New Jersey dentist and prohibitionist!

The Catholic Church teaches moderation and responsible drinking. Excessive drinking and drunkenness are considered sinful, but moderate consumption is acceptable. They base their argument on the fact that Christ drank Alcohol and also converted water to Alcohol!

They called him a GLUTTON because they never noticed a time he refuse to eat for fasting so they believe he doesn't believe in fasting which was a Jewish custom of his time.
They called him DRUNKARD because there was no time he rejected any kind of drink and the Pharisees were watching him closely each time they invite him to their gathering. Luke 7:36; 14:1

You even have time to educate. I pray make i.get that kind time for rubbish. I like it when people display their stupidity in public. That guy should thank you specially.
Blessed are the peacemakers: for they shall be called the children of God. Matthew 5:9

Jesus advised everyone to keep on asking for wisdom {Matthew 7:7-8} this will help them to gain the accurate knowledge of God {Proverbs 2:1-5} but who are those that will avail themselves to TEACH others? Matthew 28:19-20
That's our job as disciples of Christ Jesus that is why he BLESSED us for helping such ones to make peace with their Creator. Matthew 5:9

May you have PEACE!

That's why it's wise to ask them questions on what they often say God requires from people as righteousness. smiley

Jesus produced Alcoholic wine for them at the wedding in large drums!!!

The major thing mentioned in that Cana wedding is the quality of the wine produced!

So Christians should do same on their wedding day!

Real Christians are not naive at our weddings and other gatherings we make sure there is enough drinks for invitees because each of us knows what he can handle and some of us don't even taste alcoholic beverages at all as they can't handle it.
So it's not a crime to drink alcoholic what really matters is SELF-CONTROL! smiley
