I would not allow anyone who stayed in my home to bring alcohol into it , simply because I would be tempted to drink it...
A christian should consider these matters with his fellow brother/sister , so they do not cause his brother/sister to fall , but obviously a non believer would not care about this...

In these days and times, it is paramount, we the church are to be Sober minded. We are not to be drunk with wine but filled with the Spirit. The Holy Spirit more now than ever before must have full reign in our lives. The Empowerment of the Holy Spirit to be an "effective Witnesses " only can happen when the Holy Spirit is upon the person. Separation and cleaving to the Lord are essential as these days are wicked and lawless people rules. I believe these are growing pains of the last days that we see today and will take us to the very Coming of the Lord. Werre sin abound grace did much more abound. Evil men and women are creating wickedness and plotting against the people of God as never before. The United States is heading in a direction that will bring us down. The persecution will start on Christians almost immediately in America after Jan 20th. This is not the time to be led away by small addictions
I said. "Drinking is actually recommended in Scripture under certain circumstances."
The Bible does not teach total abstinence from alcohol.
“Ecclesiastes 9:7 Go ahead and enjoy your meals as you eat. Drink your wine
with a joyful attitude, because God already has approved your actions.”
Psalm 104:14-15 “You make grass grow for cattle and make vegetables for humans to use in order to get food from the ground. You make wine to cheer human hearts, olive oil to make faces shine, and bread to strengthen human hearts.”
1 Timothy 5:23 Drink no longer water only, but use a little wine for your stomach’s sake and your frequent illnesses.
Proverbs 31:6-7 Let beer be for those who are perishing, wine for those who are in
anguish! Let them drink and forget their poverty and remember their misery no more.
Philippians 4:5 “Let your moderation be known unto all men. The Lord is at hand.”
Proverbs 25:28 “Like a city with breached walls is a man without self-control.”
If drinking itself was a sin, Jesus would not have turned six jugs
of ceremonial cleansing water into wine for the wedding guests
to drink in the first recorded miracle of John's gospel. Some say
this was merely grape juice, but then why would the host proclaim,
“Everyone brings out the choice wine first and then the cheaper wine
after the guests have had too much to drink; but you have saved the
best till now.” "Having too much to drink and having your senses
numbed by such clearly indicates alcohol content.
