OK. Hypothetical here. Jesus is invited to a party. There is much drinking and socializing going on. One particular person drinks a little too much and decides to leave the party. We all know that riding a horse while intoxicated is against Roman Law and could possibly hurt the driver or other innocent people. Jesus doesn't even know the drunk person either, but is at the same party and has the opportunity to say or do anything to that person.
So, what would Jesus do?

That's so awesome how some REALLY serious people take this as an opportunity to be preachy and make fun of us. This is a hypothetical, people. Deal with it. hahaha

That's easy- Jesus would put the guy on the horse and walk the horse to the guys house, then he would make sure the guy got to his bed to sleep it off. Moral of the story guys, Jesus hangs with anybody, drinker, sinner, whatever, and then he is there when they need Him. Not there to judge, but to show love.

If that person had become drunk from too much wine that Jesus had made, just like that other time where Jesus turned water into wine for a big party, then I think Jesus would realize that He could be considered responsible if that rider got into an accident, in just the same way a bartender today, in some places, can be held liable if he serves too much to someone who obviously can't handle it and then the drunk goes out and has a car wreck. But fortunately, Jesus can perform miracles, so in this situation I would expect He would probably just snap his fingers and work a small miracle and make the guy instantly sober. But another thing, if He felt like it, He could just assign a guardian angel to accompany the rider on his way and protect him and his horse from any trouble.

ummm...hmm to say that He wouldn't attend such a gathering is wrong because people read the Bible half of his disciples were outcasts from society, one lady was a prostitute and converted and followed him. so get off your religion high horse and say that he wouldnt codone such a party. he would of done what he did in the Bible and show him what he is all about.

that never would have happened because jesus would have smashed all the beer to the curb before the party would have a chance to start. lol

well first Jesus would not be at such a party as he does not condone such actions and would not place Himself in the company of these people so your hypothetical question is moot

What a presumptuous question and ridiculous answers. Read your bible and learn something if you must discuss biblical history please do it accurately. According to every Christian I have ever had the misfortune to meet I have been told that the bible has all the answers.
