No, it is not sinful we all go to banguets, he is talking about lusts, and excess. wine. That was all it sounds like a drunken party
Now we do all things in moderation, to edify God and not ourselves
We do not the things we used to do, we are a new creature in Christ Jesus
Be Blessed....

"Banquetings", as held in the pagan Roman Empire of Peter's day, consisted of gorging yourself until you couldn't hold anything more, then going outside and making yourself vomit so that you could go back inside and gorge yourself again. It was making food an idol.
