ISAIAH V, 11. Woe unto them that rise up early in the morning, that
they may follow strong drink; that continue until night, till wine
inflame them!
ISAIAH V, 22. Woe unto them that are mighty to drink wine, and men of
strength to mingle strong drink!
ISAIAH XXVIII, 1. Woe to the crown of pride, to the drunkards of
Ephraim, whose glorious beauty is a fading flower, which are on the
head of the fat valleys of them that are overcome with wine!
ROM. XIII, 13. Let us walk honestly, as in the day; not in rioting and
drunkenness, not in chambering and wantonness, not in strife and
envying.
1 COR. VI, 10. Nor thieves, nor covetous, nor drunkards, nor revilers,
nor extortioners, shall inherit the kingdom of God.
GAL. V, 19. Now the works of the flesh are manifest; which are these;
Adultery, fornication, uncleanness, lasciviousness,
20. Idolatry, witchcraft, hatred, variance, emulations, wrath, strife,
seditions, heresies,
21. Envyings, murders, drunkenness, revelings, and such like: of the
which I tell you before, as I have also told you in time past, that
they which do such things shall not inherit the kingdom of God.
EPH. V, 18. And be not drunk with wine, wherein is excess; but be
filled with the Spirit.
PROV. VI, 27. Can a man take fire in his bosom, and his clothes not be
burnt?
DAN. I, 11. Then said Daniel to Melzar, whom the prince of the eunuchs
had set over Daniel, Hananiah, Mishael, and Azariah,
12. Prove thy servants, I beseech thee, ten days; and let them give us
pulse to eat, and water to drink.
13. Then let our countenances be looked upon before thee, and the
countenance of the children that eat of the portion of the king's
meat: and as thou seest, deal with thy servants.
14. So he consented to them in this matter, and proved them ten days.
15. And at the end of ten days their countenances appeared fairer and
fatter in flesh than all the children which did eat the portion of the
king's meat.
16. Thus Melzar took away the portion of their meat, and the wine that
they should drink; and gave them pulse.
17. As for these four children, God gave them knowledge and skill in
all learning and wisdom: and Daniel had understanding in all visions
and dreams.
18. Now at the end of the days that the king had said he should bring
them in, then the prince of the eunuchs brought them in before
Nebuchadnezzar.
19. And the king communed with them; and among them all was found none
like Daniel, Hananiah, Mishael, and Azariah: therefore stood they
before the king.
20. And in all matters of wisdom and understanding, that the king
inquired of them, he found them ten times better than all the
magicians and astrologers that were in all his realm.
21. And Daniel continued even unto the first year of king Cyrus.
ROM. XIV, 21. It is good neither to eat flesh, nor to drink wine, nor
any thing whereby thy brother stumbleth, or is offended, or is made
weak.
