I missed the wine in the Bible, partly because I didn't want to take the Bible literally..........because if when God says in Proverbs 9:5 to come and drink the winde wisdom has mixed, He actually means it, then that could lead to people disagreeing with me.
I believe there is a genuine spiritual wine from God, for us to drink...........that unlike alcohol, brings wisdom........this may appear foolish to our natural minds, but what better way for God to get us thinking spiritually, then to get us out of our minds, 2 Cor 5:13.
At the end of the day, ask God about this, He lives inside of you. But the Bible seems to point to a spiritual wine being available.
Isaiah 55:1 "Come, buy wine and milk without money and without cost."
Mark 2:22 "And no one puts new wine into old wineskins. If he does, the wine will burst the skins—and the wine is destroyed, and so are the skins. But new wine is for fresh wineskins.”"
Song of Solomon 2:4 "He's brought me in to the house of wine (in the original text)........." and others, like them appearing drunk on the day of Pentecost.
I think it's a slippery slope, if you don't take God seriously on a few verses, where to stop........
I don't mind if you don't agree.........like I say, ask God. It could certainly lead to persecution if you obey God, and drink the wine of wisdom, but we're not to be men pleasers.
