Born-again singer and rapper, Chukie Edozien, aka Lynxx, says it is not a sin to take alcoholic drinks. The rapper had reportedly been seen smoking at social functions but he had never addressed the issue.

While refusing to comment on reports of him smoking, he told Sunday Scoop,

“It is not a sin to drink (alcohol). What was Jesus’ first miracle in the Bible? He turned water to wine. I still hang out with my old friends in the entertainment industry.”

He argued that despite being a born-again Christian, he wasn’t doing gospel music. He said, “I am born-again, but I am not doing gospel music and I don’t do secular music again too. I cannot call myself a minister of God just because I performed at a gospel show. I don’t have a name for my kind of music. If I feel like praising God today, I will make a song about God, and it doesn’t necessarily mean I am a gospel artiste.”

Lynxx stated that he hadn’t released a new song in a while because he took time off music. “I took a break because I needed to focus on business and my new found relationship with God in 2015. You could have a career but also have goals that might not be in line with what you do for a living. Sometimes, you have to make sacrifices and focus on other things before you get back to what you are known for,” he said.

The rapper maintained that he had never regretted his decision to quit secular music. He added, “God is the most important thing to me. You can never experience Christ in His true form and regret it. I don’t think there is anyone who can tell me that they have encountered the Holy Spirit and regretted it. It is impossible!”

After performing at the Catholic Church’s Unusual Praise concert two years ago, Lynxx explained why he didn’t perform at this year’s edition.

“I didn’t perform because I am now part of the community putting things together. I also wanted to experience the show, the worship and the praises. For me, I found fulfillment and joy in that,” he added.

SayNoToAlcohol.

Taking Alcohol isn't wrong and have neva been, getting drunk on it is what has always been condemned.. D bible condemned drunkenness in d same way it does gluttony.. If alcohol is a sin becos it leads to drunkenness is fud also a sin becos of gluttony

Even bible encourages you to take 'strong wine' with your tithe

Let me ask my friend ogogorofreak

As long as u no dey fall inside gutter,
or dey fight useless fight,
or dey beat your wife or husband for house,
or dey misyarn anyhow,
or dey snore like train!
Nothing do you!!

ThatHistoryGuy:

Just taking excess of it and letting it control your action is a sin

gbam

Whatever that rocks your boat brother. Enjoy!

I may not be a Christian,
But I hate it when people try to bend and twist verses of their Holy Books to suit their dubious characters..

Drink but don't get drunk

Buy cheap internet data. Check my profile for more details

There is no place in the Bible where alcohol (wine) is condemned.

There are so lots of things permitted with a reason. Paul personally advised Timothy to drink beer.

Sheeples that dont read their Bible. Until Daddy and Mummy interprets for them, they wont understand the book.

Ofcos he's right

I don't believe the act of consuming alcohol is a sin.

However, since it reduces your inhibitions and self control to varying extents depending on your tolerance level, it is safe to say that it could lead to occasions of sin. it is not of itself the actual sin.

. The same way anger is not a sin, but the resultant action, if not controlled, may be terrible.

All I can say is whatever has the tendency to make you fall or sin should be avoided in totality (Mathew 5:30).


"And if thy right hand offend thee, cut it off, and
cast it from thee: for it is profitable for thee
that one of thy members should perish, and not
that thy whole body should be cast into hell"


You can't be wiser than God.

Drink, smoke weed

But

Don't drink and smoke weed to misbehave


That's what the bibble says

His case study is lame but he is right; it isn't a sin to take alcohol.

Lynxx born again?
