Why claim Jesus was perfect when we know he drank alcohol and got angry or is that a lie?

Question

If he was human he had to of sinned, proving that God forgives sinners, right?

Answer 1

are you implying that because you heard drinking or having the emotion of anger is wrong? Jesus was sinless in His heart, He did not do anything to harm another like the prostitute for example He told her go and sin no more. He could have stoned her according to law, but Jesus has fulfilled the law. Now we are under grace its not what we do or don't do that we are saved but in the heart that we believe and love.

Answer 2

Three problems:

1 - Jesus DID drink alcohol, but the fact of the matter is that alcohol definitely wasn't strong enough to knock your socks off back then. Wine was heavily diluted with water, and it would take a whole lot to get buzzed. Besides, only drunkeness is a sin.

2 - Jesus DID get angry with the Pharisees and those people selling stuff at the temple. However, as a prophet of God (among many other things), this was part of his role. He had to correct the false views around him. If you look through the OT prophetic books, you see that the prophets had to repeatedly admonish, confront, or even insult others to get God's message through to them. "Love" in the Bible is an often misunderstood word. "Agape", the ancient Greek word for Biblical love wasn't sentimentality, mushy, emotional, or "soft". It was more like modern day "tough love". It was doing what was best for the other person, even though it might hurt to do so. Like an intervention. you have to confront the other person, even when it hurts.

3 - You assume that Jesus was ONLY human, which is much too far out of the scope (and length) of this response.

I hope that I've helped clear things up!

Answer 3

How do we know he drank alcohol?
He turned water into wine but no where does it say he drank of it.
Wine then was not only drank after it was fermented but it was also drank sweet, such as juice. The bible states it's not a sin to drink until you drink to the point of being drunk.

Getting angry isn't a sin, hating a person is a sin.
Getting angry at a specific person can be sinful if done to the point of hatred toward that person. We are to hate the sin but love the sinner. Jesus didn't hate the people in the temple that he got mad it, he hated what they were doing (sinning) and got angry for the sin being committed in the temple, a holy place.

Jesus was the sinless sacrifice that paid the price for our sins.

Answer 4

I dont know what person told you god was perfect.. He took on the flesh to become human and to become human means to be a sinner. Make sense? Besides who cares if god drank alcohol, personally I dont know the man so I cant tell ya...so if ya see him tell him to come over for coffee sometime because I got a lot of catching up to do..Just believe in whatever you need to but alwayz know that if you do the right things God wont get drunk and angry at you!!

Answer 5

Rightous anger is no sin and Alcohol was drank in Jesus' time because the alcohol content sanitized the water it was mixed with and helped to prevent illness. Jesus is perfect. Jesus never sinned. Jesus was however tempted with every temptation that any human is or was ever tempted with before he died. And yes, God does forgive sinners, if we come to him and repent.

Answer 6

Jesus was perfect so he could be the perfect sacrifice for us. Drinking wine and being angry are not sins - the sin comes in the way we handle it. Some examples: We can have a drink and not get drunk, but we do not drink in front of someone who has a problem with it, and if we invite someone for dinner, we do not drink if we know they are totally against it or have a problem handling it. When we are angry, the sin comes from what we do with it eg hitting someone, gossiping, etc. We are to treat others gently and with kindness.

Answer 7

Wrong in many ways. NO Jesus did not have to sin any more than we HAVE to sin. Nobody says you have to do it, you choose to sin, to follow Satan rather than God. I will give you $50,000 cash if you can show me where Jesus ever drank any alcohol. Did not happen. If you are referring to the wine he drank, that was not fermented but unfermented wine (grape juice) off the vine. What they call new wine. Not fermented and no alcohol in it whatever. Why would He council us not to drink the fermented wine and then drink it Himself? Would not make any sense. Better read your bible if you have one and if not, best get one and read it. See more info below and do the studies and you will learn a lot.

Answer 8

The first part of your question is a full lie.
The answer of second part is:
Jesus (peace be upon him) was a human but a very special and choosen human by Allah the Almighty.
He was the messanger of Allah the Almighty and the roll model for human beings. If he had committed sins, others would have used his sins as justification of their own sins and would have said 'If Jesus (peace be upon him) can do sins, who we are to stop ourselves'.
So Jesus (peace be upon him) was innocent human and he did not commit any single sin at all.

Answer 9

Drinking alcohol is not a sin. It's a sin to drink too much of it, which Jesus never did.

Also, it is not a sin to get angry at sin. Jesus was angry with people for sinning. It's called righteous anger, and it's not a sin.

Answer 10

First off, the bible does not say drinking alcohol is bad, it says getting drunk is bad. second, we humans experience anger and such for selfish reasons, i.e. some hits us we become angry that they violate our "personal space". Jesus' anger was a just and perfect anger.

No he did not sin. If he had sinned, then he wouldn't have been the perfect sacrifice for our sins
