I oppose alcohol for my own use since I am a recovering alcoholic, I do believe in moderation for the Church since she is a witness, studies have shown a disturbing trend in North America and the UK, a trend towards being alcoholic societies. Since I Tee-Total, some might discount me and say I want some prohibition or something, not so, I simply feel the people of God bought with the blood of Christ should be very careful in the use of intoxicating beverages.
