1 | What scripture talks about alcohol | Hab 2:5 | B.Burnette | 23951 | ||
Where can I find in the Bible about alcohol and drugs? I want to know if they are a sin. | ||||||
2 | What scripture talks about alcohol | Hab 2:5 | Makarios | 23952 | ||
Greetings B. Burnette! Proverbs 23:29-35 contains an excellent illustration to the destructiveness of 'lingering long over wine.' Other verses that have to do with drinking are Habakkuk 2:5, Joel 1:5, Hosea 4:18, Ezekiel 44:21, Jeremiah 13:12-14, Ephesians 5:18. As for drugs, the only verses that I could find was where Jesus refused a "drug" in Matthew 27:34 and Mark 15:23. Blessings to you, Nolan |

3 | What scripture talks about alcohol | Hab 2:5 | serenetime | 23991 | ||
Nolan, I'm confused with your answer. I need your help. Jesus's first miracle was in John 2:1-10. Jesus comes to this wedding. It says that there were six waterpots which held 2 to 3 firkens per pot of water. After filling them to the brim, Jesus says to draw them out now, and bear unto the governor of the feast. When the ruler of the feast tasted the water that was made into wine he knew not whence it was: but the servants that drew the water knew. When the governor of the feast called the bridgroom, he said unto him, Every man at the beginning doth set forth good wine; and when men have well drunk, then that which is worse: but thou hast kept the good wine until now. I don't understand, but from what the governor says, that everyone at this wedding are already drunk. Jesus is bringing the best wine last, so because everyone is already drunk, wont they be gusling this wine when they shouldn't be drinking at all according to my understanding of your answer. I don't want to misunderstand. I would appreciate your imput. In the Father's Love, Serenetime | ||||||
4 | What scripture talks about alcohol | Hab 2:5 | Makarios | 23994 | ||
Greetings Serenetime! In my answer to B. Burnette, I believe that they were asking for Scriptures that prohibited the use of alcohol or drugs. Granted, there are many Scriptures that we can look at that would serve to justify the consumption of alcoholic beverages, but I wanted to provide ample Scripture for their prohibition since I felt that by doing so I would be able to provide a good answer to B. Burnette's question. I am not saying that it is absolutely a sin to consume alcohol, I was only providing Scripture verses that would "justify" a prohibition from alcohol and drugs. I hope this clears it up! - Nolan |
