Also, for what reason was this change made?

Dude, the LDS Mormon church started circa 1830. i'm pretty sure the wine was about the same.

Penguin - I don't pick a different group every day to single out. I am consistently using Mormons in my questions.

Revelation given to Joseph Smith the Prophet, at Harmony, Pennsylvania, August 1830. HC 1: 106–108. In preparation for a religious service at which the sacrament of bread and wine was to be administered, Joseph set out to procure wine for the occasion. He was met by a heavenly messenger and received this revelation, a portion of which was written at the time, and the remainder in the September following. Water is now used instead of wine in the sacramental services of the Church.

3 Wherefore, a commandment I give unto you, that you shall not purchase wine neither strong drink of your enemies;

Because the wine of today is not the same as wine in the bible. Wine in the bible was grape juice (No alcohol). Wine hasn't been used in sacrament since the early days of the church. Sometime in the mid 1800's.

How Christlike of you, to single out one group of people every single day of your life just to try and bash them.


Happy bashing! (Jesus said so.)

Edit: I know that you consistently bash Mormons. I'm a regular here. I see you doing it every single day. I suppose I could have worded my answer more clearly. Either way, Jesus says bash away!
