In the final message of our You Asked For It series, we tackled multiple questions submitted by our church family. We briefly explored what the Bible says about guardian angels, divorce and remarriage, the application of biblical promises, and whether God still speaks through dreams and visions. Then we took a deeper dive into one of the most requested topics: What does the Bible say about alcohol?
While the Bible doesn’t forbid alcohol outright, it clearly condemns drunkenness and warns of the dangers of impairment, loss of self-control, and spiritual compromise. We contrasted the fleeting effects of alcohol with the life-giving, peace-filled, joy-producing power of the Holy Spirit. In a world reaching for relief in all the wrong places, we are called to be filled with the Spirit, not influenced by a counterfeit.
This message is a call to evaluate our motives, pursue holiness, and be a Spirit-filled witness in a world desperate for something real.
