So many men in here mark drink yes.



The bible teaches against strong drink. Not getting drunk.



Even beer or wine can get you drunk.





Some believe it's not a sin if you drink in moderation.





Your thoughts and scripture welcome.

Jesus drank wine so it does not seem that having an alcoholic drink is a sin.

Jesus turn the water to wine. I don't think that wine was fermented.

In other words you couldn't get drunk off it.

Based on the variation, I've personally seen a priest enjoy a few cans. It can surely make a FIFA soccer match more lively. Not entirely sure if it was due to booze, but he was removed from his post several months later and the archbishop got involved. Quite the spectacle.



On the other side, not drinking can be used as a very important bridging gesture to reach out to our Muslim cousins. One of their major objections to the character of Christians is our consumption of the spirits which is harem in their faith.



For my standard view in a partner, the bare minimum is no alcohol in the house. Time and sweat spent on disagreements for what is considered "moderation" is just not worth the effort.

The Moral laws of God are still valid.



The sacrificial laws are no longer. Jesus paid that sin debt in fill when he died on the cross for our sins.

Doesn't sound like a good habit to have .



Man should be concerned .

Truly, God demands teetotalism. Drinking alcohol in all doses is sin as well as doing drugs, smoking, being gay, adulterer, ect.
