Why did Paul not Rebuke Wine use at Communion?
Paul had strong words for the overindulgent Corinthians. Why did he not rebuke them for using "crazy drink"?
20When you come together, it is not the Lord's Supper you eat, 21for as you eat, each of you goes ahead without waiting for anybody else. One remains hungry, another gets drunk. 22Don't you have homes to eat and drink in? Or do you despise the church of God and humiliate those who have nothing? What shall I say to you? Shall I praise you for this? Certainly not!
Why did'nt Paul rebuke them for alcoholic wine use at Communion when he clearly knew about it?
