We all know the debate between christians on whether or not it is o.k. for us to drink in moderation. I personally don't drink at all but I don't really have any problem with christians who do.
"...it is not for kings to drink wine; nor for princes strong drink". Proverbs 31:4
My question is this: How do we reconcile this verse with the view that it is o.k. for christians to drink? Or how do we reconcile the view that some take when saying Christ drank wine? Isn't Christ THE KING? Aren't we heirs with him? Aren't we princes and kings?
I'm not trying to start a big debate on drinking here, I'm just curious to know your thoughts in light of this verse.
In Christ,
Scot
