 Wine in the Bible: A Biblical Study on the Use of Alcoholic Beverages

Alcoholic beverages have become America’s number one public health problem, costing over $117 billion a year and claiming at least 100,000 lives per year, 25 times as many as all illegal drugs combined.

Christian churches are partly responsible for the alcohol epidemic raging in America today, because since the repeal of Prohibition in 1933, most of them have abandoned their stand for total abstinence, encouraging instead moderation in drinking. Moderation has led millions to become immoderate drinkers.

The gradual abandonment of total abstinence by many well-meaning Christians has been encouraged by the belief that the Bible sanctions a moderate use of alcoholic beverages. This belief has provided millions of Christians with an alleged biblical justification for drinking alcohol.

In Wine in the Bible Dr. Samuele Bacchiocchi boldly challenges prevailing thinking and scholarship. His painstaking research compellingly shows that the Bible consistently teaches total abstinence as a divine imperative. This teaching has been obscured by many modern Bible versions which mistranslate as "temperance" or "sobriety" some of the clearest biblical admonitions to "abstinence." A thoughtful reading of this book may well provoke a revolution in the attitude of many Christians toward alcoholic beverages.

Note: I really advise people to buy this book, get the big one, and two or three of the pamphlet sized editions.

Its great reading, also it deals with an issue that is very important to us as Believers. Enjoy reading!

Our textbook will be J. Weingreen's A Practical Grammar for Classical Hebrew.

This class is primarily for students who are unable to attend a "normal Hebrew class".  If you can find a real "live" class with a teacher, I encourage you to go! This book is used by synagogue, church, or university that teaches Biblical Hebrew.

 

More than half a century has passed since the horrors of the Nazi racial extermination camps were revealed to a disbelieving world. Yet the battle of ethnic hate and violence remains one of the burning issues of our time. Billions of dollars are spent fighting it. Oprah devotes entire programs to it. Presidents consult civic and religious leaders; everyone seems to be wrestling with the problems of racial prejudice, yet solutions evade us. But what does "race" really mean? Are there really multiple races of humans, and where did this concept originate? The Bible says in Acts 17:26 that God has "made of one blood all nations of men for to dwell on all the face of the earth." So, is there really such a thing as "the white race', or "the black race"? You will be astounded at the easy-to-understand scientific facts, and how they line up with the often-overlooked simplicity of God's Word. In this ground-breaking book, you will read, perhaps for the first time, about racism's evolutionary connections, and the powerful answer from Genesis. For a real solution to ethnic hatred, read this copy of One Blood. You'll see this explosive debate in a whole new, startling light.
