Please forgive me for what I am about to say/ask Brothers and Sisters in Christ. I totally understand the grafting in of Gentiles to Jews. I'm not talking about that. But to use as an analogy ( or fact) of California wine grapevine to give to France for the salvaging of their wine harvest, what difference would it make if Christians are not to partake in wine? I personally don't belive that Christians should not partake..UNLESS , unless, it is an addiction for some. That is totally different. ❤
Dovetail of what I posted before on wine....Remember when Jesus made wine for the wedding? ( of course you do) what if the wine he made had ZERO alcohol by volume, you know when you look at a bottle of wine and it has the ABV % on the label?. But, Because Jesus made it , it was the BEST wine that they had ever tasted! It was even said, that the BEST, was saved for the last! Interesting to me because when people drink wine they think" pretty good, but then they go on with their celebration and the more you drink, it all kind if tastes the same , because you are a little " loopy" from the wine and no one would notice. BUT, because it was made my Jesus at the wedding. It was THE BEST wine!! ( and may have had ZERO alcohol content ..lol...maybe! Just " food for thought " hmmm...bottom line. .How Great is Jesus! He makes everything taste like Honey!!❤
We are saved by the sealing of the Holy Spirit right after we believe in Jesus Christ alone as our Savior for our sins. No need to repent of thy sins to be saved. No need to surrender your all to Jesus to be saved. No need to follow catholic dogmas and traditions to be saved. - [ ] When Jesus saw their faith (belief only), he said unto the sick of the palsy, Son, thy sins be forgiven thee. - [ ] 2 Corinthians 1:22 Who hath sealed us, and given the earnest of the Spirit in our hearts. - [ ] Ephesians 1:13 In whom ye also trusted, after that ye heard the word of truth, the gospel of your salvation: in whom also after ye believed, ye were sealed with that Holy Spirit of promise, - [ ] Ephesians 4:30 And grieve not the Holy Spirit of God, whereby ye are sealed unto the day of redemption.
