Social Drinking Jn.2: st Miracle ~ Water to wine Is it all right to drink in moderation? Does the Bible condemn social drinking?

What about Social Drinking? 1. Water to Wine ~ John 2: “Wine” does not always mean an alcoholic drink 3. Why social drinking is unacceptable Lesson Plan

Did Jesus make an intoxicant ? What really happened ? Miracle = speeded up process “Oinos” ~ alcoholic ? context

Self-contradictory theory Approve social drinking Condemn drunkenness 1 Pet. 4:3 “excess of wine” Eph.5:18 “excess”

Self-contradictory theory “Well Drunk” ~ Jn.2:10 = Drunk? Dilemma ~ Jesus guilty of sin ? Heb. 4:15 “without sin” 1 Pet.2:22-24 “did no sin”

Self-contradictory theory Jesus wine was better Was it more potent ? NO ! Accuses Jesus of Sin

“When men have well drunk” Drunk largely Ps.23:5 “my cup runneth over”

“Good wine” Assume it means intoxicating Flavor known immediately If drunk they could not tell anything about the flavor

Drunkenness “To begin to be softened” Degrees of drunkenness Begins with 1 st drink

Object of Miracle “Make known glory of God” v.11 Jesus did good ~Acts 10:38 “Holy, harmless, undefiled” Heb.7:27

Different Words Different Words - 3 most common Hebrew ~ Yayin & Tirosch Greek ~ Oinos Sometimes condemned Sometimes approved

Condemned Prov. 20:1 Prov.23:31 Ps. 75:8 ApprovedPs.104:15Isa.65:8Isa.55:1 Must Look at Context

“Wine” (Greek: Oinos) Fermented (Alcohol Content ) Eph. 5:18 “drunk with wine ” Unfermented (No Alcohol Content) Mark 2:22 “new wine in new bottles”

Drunkards cannot enter heaven Gal. 5:19-21 I Cor.6:10

Why does God condemn it ? Causes heartaches Drunk drivers Homes ruined Suicide Murders

Could a Christian drink beer in the privacy of his home ? Contradiction Bible condemns drinking alcohol Drunk = “To begin to be softened” Begins with first drink !

Drinking alcoholic beverages is sinful and deadly ! The difference between a social drinker and a drunkard is only a difference of degree, not a difference of kind.

Lord’s Supper  Never called “wine”  “Cup” ~ Mt. 26:  “Fruit of the vine” ~ Mk.14:23-25

ALCOHOL  Is a Poison  Toxic – intoxicate means to poison  Intoxicated = poisoned  It is always a poison no matter how small the amount

Rom. 12:1  Bodies given by God  Serve God through our bodies  We must keep our bodies clean and healthy “Abstain from all appearance of evil” 1 Thes. 5:21

Our lives Our family Our brain Our Soul
