In Reply To Joseph on Deuteronomy 14-

I agree with Frank, no need to read that book. Just because it is, as you say older, doesn't make it correct, true, or better. God's Word is true. May the Lord bless you with His wisdom.

Sorry Angel but strong drink does NOT equate to sweet drink but alcohol Fact is people often use the term strong drink to discourage alcohol use The term strong drink is used in Leviticus 10 9 and Proverbs 20 in relation to alcohol Some drafts of that verse use the term fermentation which is the technical definition for the process by which liquids become alcoholic Alcohol like food can be used in moderation The bible warns us against gluttony but no one is going to say that you can t eat The scriptures warn us against sexual immorality but 1 Corinthians 7 verse 2 tells people to have spouses IOT avoid sexual immorality ie to have sex with your spouse instead of doing so outside of marriage Look there s no way you can avoid temptation we re all sinners the question is how are you going to respond By attempting to be the super abstinent Christian you re going to find yourself NOT enjoying your walk with the Lord nor celebrating life which is what Deuteronomy 14 verse 26 is telling you to do By not enjoying your walk with the Lord you re setting yourself up to fail big time That is the condition under which you re most vulnerable and where sin and temptation win out

I was confused by the words "Strong drink", but by further reading I conclude that it was not liquor, but a sweet drink. Angel

This text is not speaking to the drunkard, but what ever you do to the glory of God. The Apostle Paul told us not to be drunk with wine, where in is excess, but to be filled with the Spirit. Psalm 23 warned not to look on the wine when it is red. Psalm 20:1 Wine is a mocker, strong drink is raging, and who ever drinks is deceived thereby. The totality of scripture tells us that moderation must be used, so that you will not get drunk. I Cor.6 the drunkard will not inherit the kingdom of God. As long as moderation is used, and for medicinal reasons it is good
