1 | Did Jesus and early church drink wine? | 1 Cor 11:25 | 00123 | 232988 | ||
And the LORD spoke to Moses, saying, “Speak to the people of Israel and say to them, When either a man or a woman makes a special vow, the vow of a Nazirite, to separate himself to the LORD, he shall separate himself from wine and strong drink. He shall drink no vinegar made from wine or strong drink and shall not drink any juice of grapes or eat grapes, fresh or dried. All the days of his separation he shall eat nothing that is produced by the grapevine, not even the seeds or the skins. (Numbers 6:1-4 ESV) Nazirites didn't drink wine at all, which is an example there were people who never drank alcohol in their life. Then, what is the biblical (not customs) basis that we should assume that Jesus, who came on earth with a mission of more importance than that of Nazirite, drank wine and that early church believers drank wine in the communion, when no Bible verse specifically indicated so? |

We now know alcohol is excrement of microorganisms and is actually a poison that does kill brain cells, Jesus being God had to have full knowledge of this. So to say Jesus knowing this went ahead and had a swig or should I say a "social" drink once in awhile seems unlikely to me. I like to think Jesus was smarter than that. |
