Wine was not prohibited...grain alcohol, spirts and distilled liquer were. Most wine collections were private stock as there weren't alot of wineries in the U.S. back then..so the churches kept sacremental wines which were legal and as well were allowed to purchase wine. Beer and wine (champagne too) have to be aged in order to ferment..create alcohol..while grain alcohol, spirits and liquers have alcohols added to them and then are distilled to be made drinkable and mass produced.

Our church was using fermented milk (there was confusion for a while, and our leaders thought that wine was prohibited, too).
It is called the 'Legal Church of the Ever Living Liver of the Christian-Atheists of Mi-Hen'. We had a lot of horses. We still have. We are AGAINST the use of the polluting, and noisy automobile. DRIVING A CAR IS MURDER.
There was a certain Aghabek from the mountains of Tien Shan, a convert from 1923, when he arrived in N. He knew how to make the best fermented milk, or 'katza' and for a while, it was thought that we would keep on performing communion with katza. But we reverted to wine soon enough. Wine is red, red is beautiful, beautiful is good, and good is wine.
Can you answer my question about MORGELLONS? Thanks. And peace be with you, and those around you, and those around them, Edsawyer!

Hi,
That is a good question. I will try to find someone who was there.
My best guess is that they did as many churches do today and use grape juice. Looking in the Bible, wine was translated from wine or even juice.

Smuggled in grape juice. Catholic churches made their own in basement stills.

Churches now, and I'm sure they did back then, use grape juice.

Baptists use grape juice, they don't use wine.
I think others are similar, but really don't know for sure.
