Megachurch Pastor Asks: ‘Is It Wise for Christians to Drink Alcohol?’

Drinking alcohol has been a topic of heated-discussion amongst the church for quite a long time.

The Bible references wine on numerous occasions, while Peter admonishes believers to be “sober-minded” throughout the book of 1 Peter.

Author and senior pastor at Long Hollow Church in Hendersonville, Tennessee, Robby Gallaty addressed the question, “Is it wise for a Christian to drink alcohol” in a recent sermon.

A White-Skinned Jesus? Theologians Say Not So Fast

Thanks to the Bible and countless records, Christians throughout history have known that Jesus was a Jew.

But one of the biggest arguments about our Lord and Savior has been about the color of His skin, and that issue is still being debated today.

Doomsday Cult Pastor Targeted Kids to Starve Themselves

Doomsday cult leader Pastor Paul Mackenzie denies that he forced people—including children—to starve themselves in Kenya. But one of his own followers refutes that, and says children were targeted to die first.

At first report three weeks ago, 89 people were believed to have been recovered from mass graves in a forest in eastern Kenya, and it was believed to be a mass suicide. That number has risen to 201, media reports say.

Police investigators, however, believe the bodies are connected to Mackenize, whose deputy preacher, Titus Katana, told media sources that children were killed first and ordered to “fast in the sun so they would die faster.” Katana has been cooperating with authorities to investigate the cult and has provided stunning details of its operation. {eoa}
