Is drinking wine a sin?

[Pamela Smith]

Recently, I was reading my KJV Bible, and I noticed that in Proverbs 20:1 , it reads, Wine is a mocker, strong drink is raging: and whosoever is deceived thereby is not wise. Does this mean getting intoxicated on alcohol is a sin, or that simply drinking wine is a sin?

God Bless,

Dear, you see, when True Christians drink, we don't get drunk like the common people - we simply get merry:

1 Kings 4:20 Judah and Israel were many, as the sand which is by the sea in multitude, eating and drinking, and making merry.

Ecclesiastes 8:15 Then I commended mirth, because a man hath no better thing under the sun, than to eat, and to drink, and to be merry: for that shall abide with him of his labour the days of his life, which God giveth him under the sun.

Ecclesiastes 10:19 A feast is made for laughter, and wine maketh merry: but money answereth all things.

The Bible teaches us that it is good to have a merry heart:

Proverbs 15:13 A merry heart maketh a cheerful countenance: but by sorrow of the heart the spirit is broken.

Proverbs 17:22 A merry heart doeth good like a medicine: but a broken spirit drieth the bones.

I hope that was helpful, dear. Personally, I highly recommend Piesporter and Moscato.

It certainly is if it leads to rape (legitimate,anal).

Why do you even need to ask about it?

Drunkenness is a sin and is clearly indicated as such in the Bible.

Drinking wine is even more clearly indicated as NOT a sin in the Bible.


Jesus drank wine. Jesus offered wine to His apostles. Jesus turned water into wine.


See how easy it is?
