“The Treachery of Social Drinking”
Scripture: Proverbs 20:1
Believers declare their faith-filled commitment to “… abstain from the sale and use of intoxicating drinks as a beverage, and to be zealous in our efforts to advance the kingdom of our Savior.”
Motivation:The question of whether or not a Christian should engage in social drinking appears to be very much a matter of individual discretion and judgment. However, we should be extremely aware that to tread into the waters of social drinking exposes us to extreme dangers that are inherently tied to the practice.
Disclaimer: For those of you who have staked a position on the “Do/Do Not Drink” curve of alcoholic tolerance, you may relax and listen because today’s message is not an attack on anybody’s position on the question of, “to drink or NOT to drink.”
The real issue is NOT where we stand on the opinion curve.
The real issue is the “treacherous” nature of wine and strong drink.
Application:The New Testament calls for Christians to be circumspect, to set a good example, to be irreproachable, and to refuse to be squeezed into the world’s model. This call for holiness demands that Christians weigh the decision to participate in social drinking with utmost gravity; the treacherous nature of alcohol can neither be dismissed nor treated lightly. Is your testimony worth even one social drink of alcohol? Is Christ honored and glorified in how you participate in it?
