What is God's view on the consumption of alcohol?
Judges 13:2-7 and Luke 1:13-15 The above verses foretell of the birth of important leaders and prophets who "shall not engage in the consumption of wine nor strong drink". Surely God places a value on sobriety?
Luke 1:13 - 15
ESV - 13 But the angel said to him, "Do not be afraid, Zechariah, for your prayer has been heard, and your wife Elizabeth will bear you a son, and you shall call his name John. 14 And you will have joy and gladness, and many will rejoice at his birth.
