Alcohol

I would like to hear some reasonings on alcohol from my Idren on the board.

I know most of I and I are against alcohol, and there is an almost endless supply of quotes from the Bible that speaks against it. One could, however, bring up the fact that Yahshua drank wine (even though he warned I and I about the dangers of drinking too much) for instance, and use this to justify certain use of alcohol.

Feel free to add any reasoning or comment.

There is a reason for everything

Luke 5
[33] And they said unto him, Why do the disciples of John fast often, and make prayers, and likewise the disciples of the Pharisees; but thine eat and drink?
[34] And he said unto them, Can ye make the children of the bridechamber fast, while the bridegroom is with them?
[35] But the days will come, when the bridegroom shall be taken away from them, and then shall they fast in those days.



Mark.14

1. [25] Verily I say unto you, I will drink no more of the fruit of the vine, until that day that I drink it new in the kingdom of God.

Blessed Rastafari Idren,

Iman new to this paticular forum so bless up for the positve vibes

InI gotta remember that Jesus drank wine in the last supper,

Personally i do not have a problem with alchohol but i do have a problem against getting drunk, because EGO takes over and not conciousness.
YOu loose your conciousness when you are drunk so InI not deal on it.

your views idren

BLESSED RASTAFARI!!

rootsridge,


Didn't you read that quote I put above?

Mark.14

1. [25] Verily I say unto you, I will drink no more of the fruit of the vine, until that day that I drink it new in the kingdom of God.

This was said during the last supper, that was Christ's last drink of wine until all his people are in his Kingdom with HIM. And as the scripture I posted above that scripture shows, when Christ left them it became time for the disciples to fast.

And thou shalt have joy and gladness; and many shall rejoice at his birth.
For he shall be great in the sight of the Lord, and shall drink neither wine nor strong drink; and he shall be filled with the Holy Ghost, even from his mother's womb.



For John the Baptist came neither eating bread nor drinking wine; and ye say, He hath a devil.
The Son of man is come eating and drinking; and ye say, Behold a gluttonous man, and a winebibber, a friend of publicans and sinners!
