These scriptures are about Noah after the flood.... as in the Noah of Noah's Ark. This specifically says Noah was drunk. Noah drank of the wine to get drunk. However Noah was human, not perfect.
Genesis ch. 9 (KJV)
20: And Noah began to be an husbandman, and he planted a vineyard:
21: And he drank of the wine, and was drunken; and he was uncovered within his tent.
22: And Ham, the father of Canaan, saw the nakedness of his father, and told his two brethren without.
23: And Shem and Japheth took a garment, and laid it upon both their shoulders, and went backward, and covered the nakedness of their father; and their faces were backward, and they saw not their father's nakedness.
24: And Noah awoke from his wine, and knew what his younger son had done unto him.
These scriptures are about the famous Water in to Wine passage. No where after these verses does it say anybody became drunk from this win.
John ch. 2 (KJV)
3: And when they wanted wine, the mother of Jesus saith unto him, They have no wine.
4: Jesus saith unto her, Woman, what have I to do with thee? mine hour is not yet come.
5: His mother saith unto the servants, Whatsoever he saith unto you, do it.
6: And there were set there six waterpots of stone, after the manner of the purifying of the Jews, containing two or three firkins apiece.
7: Jesus saith unto them, Fill the waterpots with water. And they filled them up to the brim.
8: And he saith unto them, Draw out now, and bear unto the governor of the feast. And they bare it.
9: When the ruler of the feast had tasted the water that was made wine, and knew not whence it was: (but the servants which drew the water knew; ) the governor of the feast called the bridegroom,
10: And saith unto him, Every man at the beginning doth set forth good wine;
and when men have well drunk, then that which is worse: but thou hast kept the good wine until now.
I realize there are other verses about Wine in the Bible. You can believe what you want and interpret the verses how ever you want.... but I will say, if you feel even a tad bit condemned about it, then you know it's wrong. Sin condemns. The acts of sin are just actions, it's the intent of. The act of Murder is a sin, actually it's in the Top 10. A true self-defense situation or doing what needs to be done during war time is a different intent.
I felt like somebody needed to see this. This thought hit me earlier today and felt the need to post it. I know when the Lord is telling me to do something cause my brain and thoughts become very clear and precise about certain topics. Hope this helps whoever needed to see it.
