All things are lawful unto me, but all things are not expedient: all things are lawful for me, but I will not be brought under the power of any.
What may not be expedient to you may not be a stumbling block for another ... this one size fits all theology is so pervasive in our movement that I fear it will never disappear. Tradition upon tradition ... no room for the Holy Spirit ...
Dan, I now consider you very dangerous.
To promote drinking and/or drunkenness is way off of the reservation.
You have sunk to a new low.
Go ahead and have your say. After all, this is your house.
"Great peace have they that love thy law and nothing shall offend them...."
Obviously, I need to talk to the Lord for a few minutes, because this has offended & upset me. Have a great day everyone.

For the life of me I just dont know why anyone would want to come here and talk about drinking?
I get the theological discussion about what the bible says on the subject, but talking about ones sordid past or how one likes a Margarita with dinner? sorry I dont know what reason one would have for sharing such? it seems gratuatus (sp). Almost like sticking it in someones face.
