    What does the Bible say about "wine"? Are Christians to drink it?

    No sister. Again, please carefully read what I am saying. As for "Welch" (he does not help the case of Christian may drink alcohol, see the previously given response and reasons why), are you familiar with the 'dark ages' (AD 400-1400ish) and the prevailing system of Catholicism which teaches...

    What does the Bible say about "wine"? Are Christians to drink it?

    ... continued ... It can, yes, if not properly washed (see previous; which halts the vast majority of said process). That is not in question. This was mentioned in the OP linked materials, and in several responses as well. However, the fermentation that takes place commonly, is a 'gassing...

    What does the Bible say about "wine"? Are Christians to drink it?

    No. I have not had opportunity to grow my own grapes (for several reasons) as yet, but my next door neighbour does, and they are easily accessible over the short chain-link fence between our front yards. They are a variety of one of the common green grapes and cover the entire car port and...

    What does the Bible say about "wine"? Are Christians to drink it?

    That's fine sister, to each their own prerogative, and I am not here to force anyone to do anything that they do not want to do. I personally, find the direct sourcing of materials very helpful in online conversation, so that there is no question as to the quotation / reference. Please...

    Is there a Michael - Jesus connection in scripture? What is the history of this?

    That's fine sister, it's no big deal if people do not avail themselves of the links directly. The links are for the direct source material from which a quotation, or reference, is coming from (so, for instance if a quotation or reference is coming from page 3, then the link takes one directly...

    Ask Me (Almost Anything)

    Apologies, the question was not meant to offend in any way. As a Bible worker / teacher, I find such questions, and research fun (I enjoy such things), and am genuinely curious as to your personal responses in each, but if you feel it is too much, what about a reduction from 10, to say, 3...

    Ask Me (Almost Anything)

    In the writings of Luther (specifically), What 10 things you accept (with quotation, and source citation, linked if possible to the original source), and what 10 things you do not accept (with quotation, and source citation, linked if possible to the original source), along with the year it was...

    What is "the Lord's day", the 7th day, the 1st day or some other eschatological day, or something else?

    It (“the Lord’s day; Rev. 1:10 KJB) always speaks of the 7th day the sabbath of the LORD, His holy day of His “word” or “commandments”, and the “Spirit” refers to the “testimony” or “witness”. The Bible does not merely use the phrase “the Lord’s day” just in Revelation 1:10 KJB, as so many...

    What is "the Lord's day", the 7th day, the 1st day or some other eschatological day, or something else?

    At the very end of the scriptures, in the last book of the Bible, that of the Revelation of Jesus Christ, there exists a text which many resort to, to sustain their weekly practice of gathering upon the ‘first [day] of the week’. The text is Revelation 1:10: Revelation 1:10 KJB - I was in the...

    The "new wine" is defined in scripture, as for instance: Neh_10:39 For the children of Israel and the children of Levi shall bring the offering of the corn, of the new wine, and the oil, unto the chambers, where are the vessels of the sanctuary, and the priests that minister, and the porters...

    Is there a Michael - Jesus connection in scripture? What is the history of this?

    I am at a loss as to what you think I am doing in my responses if you think that I do "not have the confidence" "in [my] position to just clearly state" them. Please be more explicit in what you think, along with demonstration in evidence, that I am doing contrary to that exact thing...

    What does the Bible say about "wine"? Are Christians to drink it?

    Truth only seems arrogant to those who love to live in their error (and these hold their own keys to their prison), otherwise Truth is seen as precious liberty to those seeking freedom from error. As for example: Joh_8:32 And ye shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free. But to...

    Is there a Michael - Jesus connection in scripture? What is the history of this?

    Not the subject of the OP linked material, or topic, since the original study materials cover not "New Age Christianity", but historical Christianity, and there is given a whole chapter on that, from pages 200-368, beginning with Melito of Sardis (died c. 180) - Melito of Sardis - Wikipedia The...
