0:00.0 | You're watching one of a series of videos where Elisa Childers and I respond to 23 progressive |
0:05.9 | Christian claims, kind of like a progressive Christian manifesto that was written by Ragamuff |
0:10.9 | and TV. We deal with these claims, some good, some bad, some ugly, and I'm hoping that this |
0:16.8 | helps you to think biblically. Okay, which leads us to number 21. This is the one you recently did |
0:22.2 | a kind of a deep dive study on and put your findings out on a video series on YouTube. And so 21 |
0:28.8 | is it's not a sin to drink. So ironically, I actually did this video a while back, but suddenly |
0:37.0 | recently YouTube was like, we're going to promote that video and it just suddenly got tons of |
0:41.3 | views. I don't know where. But yeah, drinking, this was hard for me to do. Okay, there is alcoholism |
0:48.3 | in my family and growing up. I basically, I don't drink even today. Okay, I don't drink. I have |

1:29.5 | story. It then goes on to warn extreme warnings against the dangers of alcohol. And it's overuse |
1:37.5 | of alcohol, either in drunkenness or in regular habitual drunkenness, that this is a horrible thing. |
1:43.7 | It's destructive to lives. It's destructive to families. So it's not a sin to drink if you do so |
1:49.3 | in true moderation, right, where you're not, you're not getting drunk ever. So I think that the people |
1:57.1 | that are the abstinence people need to move over to thinking, okay, drinking can be acceptable and |
2:01.3 | can be done until the glory of God. And then the people that are already there, they need to be where |
