The Word says that all things should be done in moderation..so i dont think its wrong at all, but seeing how everything is today and alcohol kills about 40,000 kids a year, and destroyes so many families, i have decided not to support any of the alcohol makers, and stick with tea and water......

That's a strange question. Jesus drank. You drink wine in church. Muslims aren't allowed to drink alcohol, I know members of Opus Dei don't drink either. As long as you are not drinking in excess than I would say you are fine. If you feel your religion dictates that you should abstain from alcohol, then by all means do so. Religion is personal and you should do what makes you feel closer to the god of your choice.
I am not Christian ( I am not any religion) but all the Christians I know still drink. I even know some Born Agains who have a glass of wine with dinner now and then.

As Jesus turned water into wine at a wedding and then had wine at the last supper, I think the key would be in moderation. Drunkeness is not acceptable but a drink every now and again should not jeopardize your soul. Just do not drink so much that you lose your ability to thank God for the wine he has given you.

I even have studied the physique quite especially, and don't locate everywhere that it says i shouldn't comsume any alcohol. It does say no no longer be inebriated ( Eph 5:18 And be no longer inebriated with wine, wherein is extra; yet be packed with the Spirit;). the Bible certainly tells us that it is suitable to drink some wine ( 1Titus 5:23 Drink no longer water, yet use slightly wine for thy abdomen's sake and thine often infirmities) there are circumstances while alcohol replaced into forbidden (Le 10:9 Drink no wine nor reliable drink, thou, nor thy sons with thee, while ye pass into the tent of assembly, that ye die no longer: it is going to likely be a statute for ever in the time of your generations) yet they have been instructed to no longer drink at those circumstances, no longer do no longer drink "ever" seek your heart and see what the Spirit is telling YOU. you're responsible for performing because of the fact the Spirit leads. in case you experience uncomfortable eating some alcohol, then perhaps you may obey your concience/the Spirit and not drink. .

I think it's fine as long as you don't drink excessively. Jesus drank wine, it doesn't say not to in the bible or ten commandments. It just says don't drink in excess. I think wine is good for you, and any alcohol can help take the stress away and help you relax, just don't do it in excess. God bless!

Sure if you want to. I cant because I'm an alcoholic and will end up acting like a fool. But if you drink normally then sure.If drinking controls you or you can't quit after you start then maybe it would not be a great idea.
May GOD bless ya.

The book of truths and untruths says that you should do all things in moderation. I frankly do not understand because the same book says that you should wait until you are married to have sex. And that a woman must never refuse her husband. I do not know.
Go with you gut feeling.

Though my church would be highly against it, I don't think in moderation it is a problem. Jesus did turn the water into wine.
