Subject: What is 'the fruit of the vine'? |
Bible Note: Thank you for replying in such a positive way. And you are right Christians do not consider the thought of giving up alcohol. It is not even a factor. I used to drink a Magarita once or twice a year. And I never got drunk. And I also considered myself a good person with good morals who believed in God and in Jesus Christ as my savior. But I was not a Christian, and I knew it. But as of January 23, 2000 I obeyed they gospel and came in contact with the blood of Christ through baptism and became a Christian and have never looked back. Remember what happened to Lots wife when she looked back? A Christian doesn't have to look back because those sins are in the past and have been forgiven. And as 1John 1:7 says if we continue to walk in the light the blood of Christ cleanses us. There is no room for spliting hairs when it comes to the truth. Either you believe the bible and obey it or you don't. One of the most beautiful verses in the bible says Psalm 37:23 The steps of a good man are ordered by the LORD, And He delights in his way. Thanks again for writing and I hope we can agree again on another topic. Raven |
