Being Drunk

Wine is a mocker, strong drink is a brawler, and whoever is led astray by them is not wise.

…and envy; drunkenness, orgies, and the like. I warn you, as I did before, that those who practice such things will not inherit the kingdom of God.

Be sober-minded and alert. Your adversary the devil prowls around like a roaring lion, seeking someone to devour.

Woe to those who rise early in the morning in pursuit of strong drink, who linger into the evening, to be inflamed by wine.

Let us behave decently, as in the daytime, not in carousing and drunkenness, not in sexual immorality and debauchery, not in dissension and jealousy.

But now I am writing you not to associate with anyone who claims to be a brother but is sexually immoral or greedy, an idolater or a verbal abuser, a drunkard or a swindler. With such a man do not even eat.

Stop drinking only water and use a little wine instead, because of your stomach and your frequent ailments.

It is better not to eat meat or drink wine or to do anything to cause your brother to stumble.

If we deliberately go on sinning after we have received the knowledge of the truth, no further sacrifice for sins remains,

Older women, likewise, are to be reverent in their behavior, not slanderers or addicted to much wine, but teachers of good.
