Bible does not condemn taking of alcohol, but condemns and forbids drunkenness.
To your question, yes, it can lead one to hell. If you walk in the spirit, you will discover that alcoholism fights against the spirit because it makes the mind volatile and weakens the body, thereby making it susceptible to sin. You have to avoid, not only sins but circumstances that lead to it.
Proverb 14:12 says that there are ways that seem right but the end is destruction. 1Cor 10:23 says, all thing are lawful for me but not all things are expedient: all things are lawful for me but all things edify not.
The question is: are you at you best behaviour and well positioned to worship God truly in spirit when you take alcohol?
The sole reason one can take one bottle, then add another and another is simply to get high. That getting high is where the problem lies.
Don't get me wrong, you have not committed any sin just by tasting/taking alcohol.
I stopped drinking beer, not because of sin, but because my spirit repulsed it while my body yearned for it.
You have said it all my brother and just hope the OP gets to digest what is here...the devil will always try to deceive God's children BUT for those that know their God, they shall be exempted. Thanks for sharing this insightful message.

You can drink beer but dont drink Ogogoro

And make sure you take pepper-soup with it-Catfish or Bush-meat preferably

Then its not a sin if you go by these rules

First of all,there is no law against it in d bible n it wasnt stated in d ten commandment as a sin, wat was said abt it in d bible is dat we should avoid being drunk cos it can lead u to committing dat which as been stated to b a sin.
Read 1timothy 5vs23 although it didnt really state if it should b alcoholic .

parisbookaddict:




No it is not a sin. I challenge anyone who says other wise to Cite a bible verse saying its a sin. Don't forget that the first miracle of Christ was turning water to wine. There are also health benefits to drinking wine in moderation. Getting drunk tho is shameful and condemned in the bible.


No. But it condemns drunkenness as it condemns gluttony, sloth, greed etc


If it did Christ would have mentioned it.



Hope this helps. Dude if u can't drink without getting drunk then for sanity sake don't drink.
how do you guys do this thing? quoting different people on the same comment for example.

You are contradicting yourself sir. If the bible does not condemn drinking and Jesus went as far as turning water to wine, there is nothing wrong in consuming alcohol. At the end of the day, God created all things, including alcohol. Drunkennes is what is wrong. If your spirit agrees with it, it should be fine

Read what I wrote again. There is no contradiction in it. How do you measure drunkenness? You know that some drink to celebrate, some for health reasons, some to get high. What makes a man to take one glass of wine and request for another is not the Spirit of God, but the opposite. I may wish to take a glass of wine now if I have a good reason and that doesn't make me a sinner. Yet, alcoholism is generally discouraged because it makes our spirit feeble and impairs our mind. Look more on the effect than the act. The same Paul that discouraged alcoholism encouraged Timothy to take a little wine for his health. The message is: little quantity and good cause.

Another irrelevant topic to discuss. Can't Christians for once grow up and contribute to having a better world,rather than heaven.

1 Timothy 5:23 ►

New International Version
Stop drinking only water, and use a little wine because of your stomach and your frequent illnesses.
