michaelkaroh:I am sorry, if you find long post challenging for you. It is apparent the content in the post, went swoosh over your head, like as if it was a Naija Airforce fighter jet and "you didn't know warris going on" Next time, once you know, you can't run with the big boys, just stay indoors, stay on the porch. OK? michaelkaroh:Will you for a second, stop displaying and publicly flaunting your ignorance, hmm? 1. What is a vine? Vine, when related to grapevine, is a plant whose grapefruit, can be used to make fermented/alcoholic wine or fruit juice that is not alcoholic 2. What is the fruit of the vine? The fruit of the vine, in the context it was used in Matthew 26:29, is grape(s). In Matthew 26:29, the phrase, "fruit of the vine", calculatingly, consciously and deliberately used by Jesus is completely and utterly different to using the word wine. Jesus, in Matthew 26:29, avoided using the Greek word "oinos", which means intoxicating wine, as in, obviously a fermented/alcoholic drink Examples of "fruit of the vine" are: tomato juice, grape juice etcetera 3. What beverage is made from the fruit of the vine? I already gave example(s) in #2 above. |

Unik3030: The scriptures say that we must through much tribulation get into the kingdom of God. I started having problems the moment I gave my life to Christ. Not long after I gave my life to Christ, after I finished praying one day and lay down to sleep. A guy entered my room, as I was staring at him, he turned to a cat and moved straight to where I was, bit me and disappeared. I went to a pastor who prayed for me and I vomited the poison that was deposited in my body. 2 Likes 1 Share |

The first set of problems I had as a Christian, was that the devil started attacking me with terrible diseases. 1- I had an attack in the dream and woke up with HIV, God healed me 2- I had another attack immediately where i was given sugar, and woke up with diabetes, God healed me. 3- I had another attack and woke up with pile, God healed me. 4- I had another attack and woke up with cancer , God healed me. These things I'm saying aren't made up , but the truth. They might sound strange but they are all true. I could hardly close my eyes to sleep, cos the attacks were coming per second, the devil wanted to kill me by all means. 7 Likes 3 Shares |

MuttleyLaff:"Big boys" write intelligently. Making long posts about a subject don't equate being learned on such. Fruit of the vine is grape. Grape is used to make wine. All wines are alcoholic. It's that simple man. |

After the devil saw that I couldn't be killed, that's when persecution set in. I can remember the first church I said I pastored, I and my pastor friends used to hold revivals branch by branch. One day after holding revival in a particular branch, we decided to pray for ourselves as pastors. When it was my turn, I knelt down for prayers, they started praying and one of the pastors shouted and said, oga wetin you do. They asked him what the problem was and he said the Holy Ghost told him, that there were 72 kingdoms trying to kill me. I was just a little above 1 year in the Lord then, I'm still alive and fit now. 4 Likes |

It was this same set of pastors that were later manipulated by these kingdoms and used to disgrace me out of the church. They told me someone was sent from the headquarters to take over my branch and said I've been summoned by the state overseer. I went to the state overseer and he told me, that he has heard a lot of evil about me and that if he hears anything else , he will suspend me. I wanted to ask him if he wasn't the one that told them to take me out of the pulpit, but the Holy Ghost silenced me and told me He will fight for me and I shall hold my peace. That was when I really knew it was a gang up, cos one of them was my regional head, who took the decision with the other parties and lied that it was from the headquarters. 4 Likes |

Before I left the place I went through hell. I can remember then, while i was waiting and hoping for reinstatement, if I come out of my house, little children will come around me and start making jest of me, clapping their hands, stamping their feet on the floor and using me for caricature. There was no pastors vigil then, that I wouldn't be summoned by higher authority, because of false charges that were placed on me by these same set of pastors. Each time I try to defend myself the Holy Ghost will silence me and say God is the defender of the righteous. 6 Likes 1 Share |

I was once on my way to Church and i was flogged mercilessly. The scar was on my body for years, before it cleared off. I was once chained from head to toe with heavy chain that they used to lock big gates in the presence of the whole street, forced and bundled into a car and was taken straight to the headquarters. I wanted to struggle with them and the Holy Ghost spoke again and said the servant of the Lord must not strive. God made sure He broke all my defences and destroyed every form of strong man in me. 4 Likes |

michaelkaroh:Grapes are used to make fermented wine and also used to make fresh juice which obviously is unfermented wine EnthronedbyGod:I concur completely with demur with this comment EnthronedbyGod:The water turned into wine by Jesus, in John 2:9-10, is fermented/alcoholic wine and not fresh wine. This is evidenced by the Greek words, "oinos", used in John 2:3, 9-10, which means intoxicating wine, as in, obviously fermented/alcoholic drink. EnthronedbyGod:"Don’t drink only water. You ought to drink a little wine for the sake of your stomach because you are sick so often" - 1 Timothy 5:23 How fresh wine, as in, wine with no alcoholic content, can relieve someone in ailing health like Timothy was is baffling. We ought to recognise that the Greek word used by Paul, in 1 Timothy 5:23, is the word "oinos", which means intoxicating wine, as in, obviously a fermented/alcoholic drink. Grape fruit juice doesnt fire anyone up in the stomach, it is very good wine, that shakes you up and shudders you, so that all that sickness dissipates and flies off the body. That is why Paul recommended alcoholic wine and not grape fruit juice to Timothy EnthronedbyGod:This is an imposition introduced by man michaelkaroh:This is an incorrect statement michaelkaroh:The emboldened is absolutely correct and true. Consumption of alcoholic beverages in moderation is advised EnthronedbyGod:This 110% correct EnthronedbyGod:Drinking alcoholics is for merriment, to cheer oneself up, for socialising etcetera, but never to be abused, never to be misused, never to get drunk on, and surely never to be addicted to michaelkaroh:Who vex you nah.

I once went to see a young lady in her aunt's shop. She was somehow close to me then, but I had to run for my dear life. I decided to take a stroll with her, we walked and got to a curved place that was covered with kerosine tank. As we got there, she removed her skirt instantly, she had no underwear on, and started urinating right in my presence claiming she was pressed. The funny thing is that she faced me while urinating 3 Likes |

Respect, politeness and courtesy is a two way street. EnthronedbyGod:Smh. Please tell, and put the devil to shame. What language is "oinos" in and what language is "yayin" in, hmm? Dont bother, its a rhetoric question, because the former is Greek, while the latter is Hebrew, the light bulb moment about the two words, is that they both mean the same thing, as in, mean alcoholic/fermented drink EnthronedbyGod:You better stick to dishing and rolling out your salacious, sensationalized gutter press stories to your itching ears audience, instead of trying very hard to make words suit your narrative and man made doctrine Do you think Jesus wasnt aware of the words "oinos" and "yayin" at all, hmm? Why did Jesus not use either "oinos" and "yayin", but calculatingly, consciously and deliberately used "fruit of the vine" instead, huh? Jesus avoided using the Greek word "oinos" and the Hebrew word "yayin", because both means intoxicating wine, as in, obviously a fermented/alcoholic drink/intoxicating wine Now please EnthronedbyGod, explain why was Jesus called a winebibber and/or a drunkard? Was it because of drinking grape fruit juice or fresh wine that's not fermented, erhn? 1 Like |

MuttleyLaff: Actually, no Christian with the Holy Spirit seeking to tap into the heavenly and to grow should make wine. Alcoholic wine has a tendency to intoxicate. Wine, beer etc is not a sin in the way the church sees it. It is not filth as the church sees it. However, as a Christian grows spiritually there are some habits must that should be put off. Drinking alcohol is one of them. A spiritual Christian should never risk intoxication which is control by a force other than the holy spirit Taking weed Drinking Alcohol Giving in to our emotions such as anger, hate etc can be used as a means of control by the evil one. Those are secondary means. The primary means is demonic possession. I'm sure you know about that one very well. I won't delve into that. I won't also talk about alcoholic drinks like gins and spirits because those are harmful to health. I doubt they provide a single advantage to the body. Deliberately destroying your body as a sign of enjoyment is a sin to the creator of that body. I'm sure you know that a great evangelist like AA Allen was consumed by Alcoholism in his final years. Infact, it was one of the things that destroyed his ministry. This was a relapse as he had struggled with alcoholism in his teens before he became born again. It is important we are careful who we tell this things to. Some people are better off just hearing "Alcohol is a sin" If you were to tell someone me that a little wine is good I wouldn't be bothered because I have been clean all my life and I'm not even drawn to alcohol. I hate the smell. However, if you were telling an "A.A Allen" the same thing you might just be triggering a relapse back to a forgotten addiction Most cleaned up addicts will never be able to manage the object of their addiction. they have to say bye-bye to it forever and will always struggle when they see it again compared to the average person who never had an encounter with that object. I have seen how alcohol wrecked spiritual men. One is the Mentor to one of my major spiritual mentors. Not so educated but had a deep understanding of faith even more than our fathers. Infact muttley, if you have been involved in deep fasting and prayer you would know that even food is a clog in mans spiritual ascension. The more you fast the more you hate food because the more your spirit man is being awakened. We need food to survive and must eat but we don't need alcohol to survive. So, why can't we just do away with it. Why do we always need deep explanations for things like this? As enlightened Christians, we supposed don pass this stage na. Remember paul's frustration with ( I think the Corinthian church) we suppose don pass stage of " If you lie you will go to hellfire" . Simple things. Besides, we should not forget where this drinks are being sold. I don't think anything that uplifts the spirit man are discussed there. I don't want to go deep into this aspect so it won't seem like I'm judging the "babes and sucklings" Finally, I'll leave everyone reading this and battling on whether to drink or not to 1 Corinthians 6 Everything is permissible for me"--but not everything is beneficial. "Everything is permissible for me"--but I will not be mastered by anything. 13 "Food for the stomach and the stomach for food"--but God will destroy them both. The body is not meant for sexual immorality, but for the Lord, and the Lord for the body. Where it is written sexual immorality put Alcoholic Intoxication. Dear reader, put your hands on your chest and say " I will not be mastered by anything." Peace. 10 Likes 1 Share |

Op's battle is a spiritually propelled physical battle. When the devil couldn't succeed in the spiritual realm, he brought it down to physical to make it look like an ordinary thing. God sure holds the Op's rein. He needs those experiences to make him into what God wants him to be. michaelkaroh: |

Drunkenness and addiction to wine/alcohol is a behaviour not fitting or appropriate for any son/daughter of God.

generationz:Beautifully written but I think it is off a little. Drinking alcoholic beverages is not bad.....drinking alcohol till your state is altered(drunkenness) is abominable. As you know, man must worship God in sobriety always, so anything that alters your state of consciousness is sin. Many Christians today still use consciousness altering medications not knowing it is a sin, eg painkillers, anasthetics etc. As for addictions, it has no place in christ. Once men accept christ, their bodies, desire and actions are controlled by the Holy Spirit, the only way to relapse into the former man is by sin. You should know that addictions are totally spiritual as they are physically absurd. Alcoholics with liver damage will still beg for a sip. Fashion addicts don't mind being in debt to be trendy. Wife beaters can abuse their wives for greeting them in a wrong "tone". Also, there are people addicted to cutting themselves, tattoos, starvation,etc. The only way to give up addictions is to accept christ and the only way to relapse is to fall back into sin. 2 Likes |

michaelkaroh:Not all wines are alcoholic, only fermented grapes or Vines are alcoholic. Not only Vine. If you ferment Palm juice you'd ve alcohol. if you ferment Corn, Rice, Millet, you'd have alcohol come out of them. Fermentation turns them to alcohol, not that they are automatically alcohol. 1 Like |
