What Does the Bible Really Say About Alcohol?

[amadeus2]

It says much about drunkenness & from what I interpreted it says don't drink till you get drunk or feel a change in your thinking.

So I gather that Christians are to be Christ like & Christ NEVER got drunk.

Or only get drunk as they did on that day of Pentecost described here:

"Others mocking said, These men are full of new wine.

But Peter, standing up with the eleven, lifted up his voice, and said unto them, Ye men of Judaea, and all ye that dwell at Jerusalem, be this known unto you, and hearken to my words:

For these are not drunken, as ye suppose, seeing it is but the third hour of the day.

But this is that which was spoken by the prophet Joel;" Acts 2:13-16

Yes, this is that! Sometimes the unlearned may called this "drunkness", when in fact it is the outward expression of joy from hearts when filled with and moved by the Holy Spirit.

 

[B-A-C]

Amen!

Eph 5:18; And do not get drunk with wine, for that is dissipation, but be filled with the Spirit,
