Hi. I was wandering how much wine is not to much? The following from the Bible indicates that it’s ok to have some: Psalm 104:15 "... wine that makes glad the heart of man... " 1 Timothy 5:23 Stop drinking only water, and use a little wine because of your stomach and your frequent illnesses. And of course there are verses that say that it’s a sin to drink much: Ephesians 5:18 18 Do not get drunk on wine, which leads to debauchery. Instead, be filled with the Spirit, So, if it’s to make your heart glad that means that in my case I would need maybe three glasses of wine. I am around 140kg, 42 years old with a biggish build. But the question remains how often? I would say not more than once a week. I have had more than once a week lately and hopefully I pull up and cut back. I write this because I like a bit of wine, I only drink red wine and no other alcoholic drink. Now the above verses mention wine, not whisky, bear, etc. So does that mean we should only drink wine? I think so since strong alcoholic drinks like vodka for instance are a bit to strong therefore to easy to have to much. Anyway, I am very much so interested in others understandings. Thanks
