Would a person using Nyquil be sinning,or would those taking Loradine as prescribed by a Doctor be sinning ?

So what happens with your new converts who are pot smokers and drinkers? Do you tell them not to drink until they are drunk, but they can still drink?
Most people coming out of the world today, drank to party, drank to get fuzzy headed, drank to have fun. (not all, most)
Our newest babies stopped drinking and not one person told them to. In fact, it was never mentioned, discussed, brought up in any way. They dropped it completely.
The Bible talks about Wine being a mocker, and strong drink being raging.
The NT talks about wine for the stomach's sake. The NT talks about wine for communion or nourishment.
The NT talks about new wine, the New Testement talks about being filled with the Spirit...
That's Bible.
All else is supposition, and provision for your own desires, nothing more.
New babies? If they are grounded in the faith they must hear the complete word of God. While scripture gives great warning about the use/misuse of wine it also praises it and there were even wine offerings. That Jesus drank wine is obvious or why would He be accused of being a wine abuser and a glutton if he didn't on occasion drink and enjoy fine food?
I do believe in knowing our strengths and weaknesses and if someone cannot drink without sinning by all means don't drink.

In the North American culture,people abuse things easily so many people can not control their use of wine.

Skip the wine and go straight to Nyquil.......Pentecostal sip'n whiskey......
Seems the scripture advocates a "little" wine for the stomach sake, but not drinking it for social gatherings and parties or wine wherein there is excess.

Seems to me you are right.
