Fruit of the vine, the denial of a personal accusation, and medicinal use
Claim examined: Worship, music, and prayer
Scriptural Answer
rod wrote, "If Jesus came down today, He would not find me drunk, but He did say that He would not drink winde until the Apostles were with Him in Heaven." No, Jesus said He would not drink of the "fruit of the vine" which is nothing more than grape juice, NOT "wine" as you assert. (Matt. 26:29). rod wrote, "I do not get drunk." I never said that you did. You wrote, "Now, [name omitted], don't go twisting God's Scriptures; I didn't." Now we are into using last names are we rod??? Because I corrected you and showed you that you were indeed WRONG in what you stated, now I am twisting God's Scriptures??? If I am "twisting God's Scriptures" then please explain to everyone here HOW I am guilty of this very thing in which you accuse me of doing??? I wrote EXACTLY what you said and SHOWED you how you were NOT speaking the truth according to the word of God. If I am wrong, then PROVE it...!!! Don't throw out an accusation unless you can PROVE IT!!! I PROVED that you were WRONG. Now how about returning the favor and PROVE me wrong!!! If I am wrong, I will admit that I am wrong. It is obvious that you do NOT want to admit when you are wrong do you rod??? You wrote, "I distinctly made the difference between drinking and drunken-ness." What does God say in the verse that I quoted??? You didn't answer my question when I asked if a Christian could take one drink just before Jesus returned would he still be saved??? The answer to that question is as God stated in the verse I quoted earlier. You wrote, "I suppose that you don't take cough medicine tainted with alcohol?" Once again, you make an attempt to put words into my mouth. I never said that I don't take medicine "tainted with alcohol", there is a BIG difference between taking medicine that will help you feel better and taking a drink which ONLY gets you drunk. You wrote, "It isn't that we are going to drink to get drunk--a sin." Does one drink impair someone's brain yes or no??? If one drink is enough to IMPAIR someone, then it is a SIN!!!
