Subject: What is 'the fruit of the vine'? |
Bible Note: Mommapbs First Is 25:6 is talking about "lees" wine which is merely settled (clarified) wine. As I have repeatedly try to get across grape juice left to itself will ferment but the alcoholic content will be so low most would call it non alcoholic. However it would more likely become vinegar long before that. Now we know by modern science that even a small amount of alcohol is deterimental to the body so we are saying Jesus made something that would harm us. I say the discussion on alcohol is not to enlighten but rather to serve as self justification. I can see no reason why we would want to take something in our body that effects us in a negative way.
