Was it wine or grape juice?

[Lyte]

Howdy!This has always been a bit of quandary for me. I was raised Catholic who believe that Jesus drank wine wine... yes, an alcoholic beverage. I can hear the gasps!

Then for High School I went to "Reformist/Calvinist" which said it was only grape juice. Personally, I think was wine wine!

It was wine. Wine is often spoken of in the Bible and it only becomes a sin when done in excess. Otherwise, why would Christ have turned the water to wine in his first miracle?I believe it was a few years ago in which they discovered wine of the day was much more powerful than what we drink today?1 Timothy 5:23Drink no longer water, but use a little wine for thy stomach's sake and thine often infirmities.That little health tidbit is straight out of the KJV Bible, folks.

The High Priests tred toacuse jesus of being a drunkard. If he was drinking grape juice, he would have simply pointed out the fact that it was grape juice and not wine. In order to accuse Jesus of drunkeness, there has to be a potential to get drunk on what he was drinking.

THE TIMES HAVE CHANGED............HOW MUCH HAVE WE?JOHN 2:9 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.IF WE ARE AT A WEDDING ...........................AND WE WERE TAKEN FROM WINE.................. TO GRAPE JUICE..................DO YOU THINK WE WOULD SAY IT’S THE BEST FOR LAST?IT WAS VERY GOOD WINE.............AT A WEDDING...............AMEN
