The Biblical Truth About Alcohol: Why Christians Should Abstain | Pastor's Warning
🗡️ This expository sermon was delivered at Pilgrim Baptist Church in Cookeville, TN on Sunday, March 2, 2025, at 11:00 am. 🗡️
In this powerful biblical teaching, our pastor delivers a compassionate yet firm message on why Christians should abstain from alcohol. Drawing from numerous Scripture references including Habakkuk 2, Ephesians 5, Proverbs 20, and Isaiah 28, this sermon explains the spiritual dangers of alcohol consumption and addresses the common misinterpretation of Jesus turning water into wine at the wedding in Cana.
Key points covered:
• The biblical warnings against strong drink and its effects on judgment • How alcohol is described as "a mocker" that deceives those who consume it • The distinction between fermented wine and fresh grape juice in Scripture • Why alcohol consumption contradicts the believer's identity as "kings and priests" • Practical advice for parents on teaching children about the dangers of alcohol
Whether you're a parent concerned about your children, someone struggling with alcohol, or a believer seeking biblical clarity on this topic, this message offers scriptural wisdom and guidance. Our pastor emphasizes that this teaching comes not to condemn, but to help those who may be caught in alcohol's destructive cycle.
