I have no idea what you are talking about. Who what?
Your discernment is way off. It must have been drowned in alcohol
Plenty of people have thought the same thing, so your attempt to blame alcohol is lame.

1 Timothy 1:10
for the sexually immoral, for homosexuals, for slave traders and liars and perjurers, and for anyone else who is averse to sound teaching
Your "teaching" is like having to decide between eating poop flavored chocolate or chocolate flavored poop. Lol

On hearing this, Jesus said to them, "It is not the healthy who need a
doctor, but the sick. I have not come to call the righteous, but sinners."
* "For the Son of Man came to seek and to save the lost."

There's something I heard a couple of times last night. Some said moderation meant different amounts to different people, because some can drink more than others & not get drunk. That's true. What wasn't said was that people have to drink often & more to build up that immunity to alcohol..... just like a drug addict does.

[h=1]Isaiah 5:20
[/h] “Woe unto them that call evil good, and good evil; that put darkness for light, and light for darkness; that put bitter for sweet, and sweet for bitter!”

Your tolerance level does not necessarily change if you don't drink all the time. Two sips of beer could give some a buzz. Even those who drank regularly. Weight plays a part also. People talking about how much affects them were also in many cases not people who drank to get drunk. Moderation was also spoken against as being applicable for all people. That has been my stance all along. Abstinence works for some even if it is not required for all.

I think most of us know who you really are. Or one of the false names that you used here before you were banned the first time around.

Ya...the pharisees would spit on these guys as they walked by too....but they would probably cross to the other side of the street and just mutter condemnation at them instead......just like you! Thats something you can proud of right there!

Something which puzzles me and maybe people on here can answer.
This is a genuine question, nothing implied or intended.

If people drink in moderation to be social and enjoy the taste and because certain types
of alcohol go well with certain food and they don't what to get drunk or tipsy etc.

Then why not use non alcoholic drinks and non alcoholic grape juice etc?
Whats the difference between the real stuff and non alcoholic stuff?

Not true, ive known heavy, daily drinkers who began to slur after their second beer, literally their second. But they had the ability to finish off a bottle of wine a night, a few beers and a couple of joints.

I think alcohol has a "bite" that anything else may not be able to replicate.

We don't battle against flesh & blood, this is just another useless argument to keep us from loving fellowship. So all we have to do is unite and agree to use the ignore button against the enemy... or ignore anyone who continually allows the enemy to use them as a tool of contention and condemnation.

Problem solved! ;)

Because there is a taste difference. I don't mind non alcoholic beer because I don't normally drink the usual but there is a slight watered down taste. As for wine and grape juice, they are two different drinks lol
