and whosoever is deceived thereby is
not wise." Pr 20

Here's today's Sabbath sermon, called "Decent and Orderly," which largely focuses on the powerful relationship that Yeshua has built with all people who love Him and do His will: https://firstfruits.cc/blog/20....24/06/08/decent-and-

This is the essence of the 5th Gospel.
We know who Matthew says Yahshua is…
We know who Mark says Yahshua is…
We know who Luke says Yahshua is…
We know who John says Yahshua is…
…So Who do you say Yahshua is?
If what we say is not what they said, then we have a very big problem.
…And so does everyone else around us who have not yet read what Matthew, Mark, Luke, and John said about Yahshua…because they can only learn Who He is from us.
Just a thought -- Why did YHVH not create our domestic animals to speak to us? I think it is to teach us humans that LOVE and LOYALTY are demonstrated by actions and not just empty words. We can learn a great deal from them.

That is why the church teaches to stay away from alcohol as a whole, period. And yet the instruction in Deuteronomy 14:24-26 is that some money for the feasts can be used to buy even strong drink.
I would personally say that if you drinking alcohol causes you or someone else to stumble then don't drink it. Don't cause yourself to be in sin or by drinking in front of them, be a stumbling block to your brother.
But we can't teach against the consumption of alcohol as a blanket order.
