Bible Question: I was ministering to one of my friends and i was telling her that the bible says to be sober at all times. She stated to me that Jesus drank wine and for one of his miracles turned water into wine. What do i tell her about drinking? i know it's not okay to drink, so how do i answer her question and still prove to her that she shouldn't drink? |
Bible Answer: Its true that Jesus drank wine but I'm sure he and His diciples wern't out getting trashed. I'm not a drinker but I will say there is a big differece here. I also believe that to be truely in the Lord you have to be able to controll your behavior. Those who are followers know that you don't need to get drunk to have a good time and that there is always joy in the Lord thus don't have the helpless desires that the unsaved do. (Not to say that christians are never tempted) It sounds like your friend might need to accept Christ as a neccesity before she can accept that alchole is not. Good job sharing the Father's word and keep on, I will pray for you. Bless you sister. |
