Question, how much wine before we are not Spirit filled?
Does the Spirit un-fill us in stages or all at once as we drink wine?

Sean, I’m sorry that you’ve had trouble with alcoholism, and drunkenness. I really am. However you’re talking about drunkenness, I’m talking about drinking. They can be related, but they don’t have to be. That’s my point.
Just as sex within marriage is a wonderful thing, and outside of marriage, it’s a sin. Both are sex. Drinking wine is fine, getting drunk is not. That’s Bible.
I have personally consumed alcohol several times in my life, but I’ve never been drunk. I am thankful that I’ve never had any trouble with alcoholism close to me. But if I had, it still wouldn’t affect whether or not, it is sin.
