AMPLIFIED 2015 | 1 Corinthians 11:25 In the same way, after supper He took the cup, saying, "This cup is the new covenant [ratified and established] in My blood; do this, as often as you drink it, in [affectionate] remembrance of Me." |
Subject: Did Jesus and early church drink wine? |
Bible Note: Now when Jesus learned that the Pharisees had heard that Jesus was making and baptizing more disciples than John (although Jesus himself did not baptize, but only his disciples), he left Judea and departed again for Galilee. (John 4:1-3 ESV) Like above, the Pharisees and non-believers believed in and acted on rumors, not solid facts. Likewise, people's accusation on Jesus (Matt 11:19 'Behold, a gluttonous man and a drunkard') was wrong. I just wanted to know Bible-based facts, neither the Israeli customs of the first century nor anyone's speculations. |
