Download or read book Ancient Wine and the Bible written by David Brumbelow and published by . This book was released on 2011-10-01 with total page 308 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Having spent years in the pastorate, David Brumbelow has observed the tragedies associated with consumption of intoxicating beverages. Brumbelow determined to research the matter and reassess the teachings of Scripture about alcohol. The volume you hold, Ancient Wine and the Bible: The Case for Abstinence, addresses the subject with keen logic, a grasp of history, and thorough exegesis of biblical literature. Acknowledging that the Scriptures do not retain an expressed mandate against drinking alcoholic beverages as "thou shalt not steal,"he, nevertheless, demonstrates that the overwhelming witness of the Bible is like a mighty breaking wave on the north shore of Oahu, demanding abstinence based on case histories of the devastation of "strong drink" added to the "wisdom" literature of the Bible in its repeated call for abstinence.

Download or read book Grape Juice in the Bible God s Blessing for His People written by Richard Teachout and published by Lulu.com. This book was released on 2011-09-07 with total page 150 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Grape Juice in the Bible" presents a strong case for the fact that Israel in Bible times had fresh grape juice as a healthy beverage. It also shows God's disapproval of alcoholic beverages for His people and details the great change in the approval of alcohol among Christians through the last 200 years in America. The reason for this book is clearly presented by a recent blog (aletheiabaptistministries.org): "It would be an uphill battle merely to advocate moderation in drinking as many conservatives do, but to come to a conclusion that total abstinence is a Biblical mandate, would place one immediately in the backwater of Christian social fellowships. But that is just the conclusion I've come to, not just because I find it the overwhelming norm of Christian history, or because the statistics on drinking grow increasingly alarming, but because I've become convinced that this is the only consistent biblical teaching."
