Agreed.
Well, shame on me.
God sees the heart.
My heart is for Truth and for the physical, and spiritual, well-being of my fellow Believers. Anybody who scans every single post of mine in this thread will see that fact. I've not twisted a single scripture and I've MADE UP NO LAWS. I've only presented the facts.
I have no doubt whatsoever you believe so, and you can have no doubt whatsoever I reject it. I have likewise offered many proofs to the contrary of what you say. Therefore, I will continue in my liberty, and you will continue in your conscience.
Of course, one single Scripture that plainly addresses alcohol in itself as sin, without context of drunkenness and debauchery and riotous living and pagan ceremony of worship. In addition no useless discourses on culture, history, biology, and personal observation of the world, which have nothing to do with what is written, because that stuff is not.
That would be the only true start of a true dispute of a single Scripture. The only facts you have present in Scripture is that against the abusive lust of alcohol. Period. You make no difference between a drunkard and drinker, even as one would make no difference between a fornicator and marital sex.
A single and plain scripture of rebuke stands against your made up point of law against all drinking any time:
"Let no man therefore judge you in meat, or in drink, or in respect of an holyday, or of the new moon, or of the sabbath days..." (col 2)
That ain't grape kool-aid nor grape juice God is talking about. We are not to be judged for eating meat, nor drinking wine, nor observances of days. All that is a shadow cast upon the liberty of God in Christ Jesus, where we may richly enjoy all things made on the earth,
without lust.
"My heart is for Truth and for the physical, and spiritual, well-being of my fellow Believers."
I have been among them that care more for the souls for others than they do for themselves, and it is the worst part of self-righteous judgment of others with effort to dominate their faith and lives.
Do not
ever presume to care more for others than they do for themselves. God alone is the only One who can truly say He cares more for others than Himself and than they themselves, and He proved it on the cross. All others are misguided at first, then pretenders at best, and finally despotic at heart.
"Not for that we have dominion over your faith, but are helpers of your 
for by faith ye stand." (2 Cor 1)
"And I saw, and behold a white horse: and he that sat on him had a bow; and a crown was given unto him: and he went forth conquering, and to conquer." (Rev 6)
Truly truly I say unto thee, what you care for most is forcing your abstinence religion on others that refuse to believe it, because the Bible doesn't plainly say it. You want to preach against drunkenness and revelry in pagan households according to the Scripture, go right ahead, but leave the sober minded adults in Christ alone, while they eat and drink even as the Lord, with faith in the Lord.
"And whatsoever ye do, do it heartily, as to the Lord, and not unto men." (Col 3)
You heartily refuse to drink, good. I heartily drink, good. None is better and none is worse,
until one forbid the other, or one compel the other. You don't judge me, and I will not set you at naught (Rom 14:10). When I drink, I do not try to impress others nor to show off my liberty, but I trow when you remain abstinent, you congratulate one another.
You want to pray about something, pray about that.
