(Galatians 5:19\u201321)(NASB)<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<h2><strong>Wine consumption is a subject that fits to \u201cdoubtful opinions\u201d category<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">In chapter 14 of the Epistle\u00a0to Romans, Apostle Paul\u00a0speaks about\u00a0doubtful opinions and he begins so:<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"td_quote_box td_box_center\">\n<p dir=\"ltr\">Now accept the one who is weak in faith, but not for the purpose of passing judgment on his opinions. (Romans 14:1)(NASB)<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">What are these doubtful opinions? They are some subjects or aspects of the Christian life, that are not attached so much importance by God as they are attached by people. Some think that these aspects are decisive regarding our salvation, that\u2019s why they attach so much importance to them. One thing is sure, that a mature Christian will not have many discussions, quarrels, misunderstandings regarding these doubtful opinions. In chapter 14, among the things that fit to the category of doubtful opinions, are listed some food, meat, observing some days as holidays and drinking wine. Apostle says\u00a0neither to judge nor to regard anyone with contempt for these reasons, but at the same time, to avoid discussions on this topic, knowing that these discussions will not bring construction, but they will rather produce contempt or a spirit of judgment. At the end of the chapter, Apostle writes:<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"td_quote_box td_box_center\"><p>So then we pursue the things which make for peace and the building up of one another.\u00a0Do not tear down the work of God for the sake of food All things indeed are clean, but they are evil for the man who eats and gives offense.\u00a0It is good not to eat meat or to drink wine, or to do anything by which your brother stumbles.\u00a0The faith which you have, have as your own conviction before God. Happy is he who does not condemn himself in what he approves.\u00a0But he who doubts is condemned if he eats, because his eating is not from faith; and whatever is not from faith is sin. (Romans 14:19\u201323)(NASB)<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<h2><strong>Why do people insist on drinking wine with them?<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">Because, in\u00a0most\u00a0cases, those who do so know that you don\u2019t drink because of your faith reasons and they want to corrupt you and then they will be able to tell everyone that you are not a true Christian, that Christians are hypocritical, etc. All they say as motivation is manipulation. I mean the cases when they say you don\u2019t respect them, you are not like all of them, you don\u2019t want the good of the celebrated one, etc. In fact, let us look successively. Even because you respect the one who is celebrated, you came to his birthday party to congratulate him, this is the proof that he is precious and loved by you and you respect him. Concerning being like all people are, if you don\u2019t consume wine, you are exactly like them, because as they are free to consume wine, you are free not to consume. Then, as you respect their freedom to drink, they have to respect you too, especially if they know that you don\u2019t drink because of spiritual conviction.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">Let me retell you\u00a0a case that happened to me and to my wife. We were at a meeting with our former classmates. When we went to sit around the table, there was wine and brandy, and many other alcoholic drinks. One of the classmates came to me and my wife and asked us respectfully what we wanted, offering us juice, table water and compote. While\u00a0we were talking with people, another classmate came to us, who\u00a0had been\u00a0disrespectful since we were students in school and offered us a glass with wine. We thanked him, and told him that we didn\u2019t drink, but he began to convince us and to insist that all of us had to drink. He said that we must drink, because that was nothing wrong with it, that was not a sin, that wine was the blood of the Lord, etc. Then I replied him: \u201cMy friend, as you saw, I didn\u2019t tell you anything that you drink wine and you are already drunk, but if you want, I can give you a more convincing sermon that drunkenness is debauchery.\u201d He shut up and didn\u2019t say any word.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">God help each of us to behave wisely in every situation of life and not give any chance to people to talk badly about us and the devil to\u00a0make gains from us.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\"><em>Translated by Felicia Djugostran<\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Question: I have a question concerning wine consumption:\u00a0are Christians generally allowed to consume wine?
