Subject: What scripture talks about alcohol |
Bible Note: 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 |
