I would not <I>necessarily</I> say it is wrong if a person, within reasonable bounds, has a drink to calm oneself or relax, etc. This is simply my own conviction regarding the matter - if I realize I'm heading toward having a drink to alter my mood, I don't. <BR/><BR/>Let me explain why - we are not blind to vandorstenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00551123148428933747noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12177647.post-1133468258628175472005-12-01T15:17:00.000-05:002005-12-01T15:17:00.000-05:00in response to your comment that you don't drink t...in response to your comment that you don't drink to alter your mood: i wonder about Psalm 104:15 that you cited in you earlier post. it presents "wine that gladdens the heart of man" as a blessing from God. is it wrong if the alcohol "gladdens your heart"? clearly the author of the psalm is referring to the mood-altering effect of the wine. i'm mainly playing devil's advocate here, but any Will and Oliviahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03251762994110750413noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12177647.post-1132794911699174392005-11-23T20:15:00.000-05:002005-11-23T20:15:00.000-05:00music - many thanks for the kind words... be sure ...music - many thanks for the kind words... <BR/><BR/>be sure and tell all your friends. ;-)vandorstenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00551123148428933747noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12177647.post-1132767540071208222005-11-23T12:39:00.000-05:002005-11-23T12:39:00.000-05:00van.diesel...good words. i struggle with how many...van.diesel...good words. i struggle with how many Christians argue about 'drunkenness' and they define what their limit is by: "i was totally fine after those 5 drinks", "it's how much you can hold", or "i was just having fun". 'Foolish' and 'Dangerous' might be hard words to swallow but playing at that line is truly just that.
