Christians and Alcohol: An Abstinent View
The author gratefully acknowledges the work of David R. Brumbelow and his excellent book, “Ancient Wine and the Bible” in the writing of this article.
In first article
The point of this article, however, is to present the other view on alcohol – the one calling for a higher standard, the one where the Christian can never be alcohol’s victim or fall prey to regret for its use, the one that humbly sets the best example in a world of substance addictions and other related perils, the one that calls for total abstinence of its recreational use. Too much is at stake to for any other position.
I wholeheartedly agree on this score.

In my humble opinion, Mark Creech is an outstanding writer. Hope everyone reads his article.
Hope they will check out ACAP as well.

While I disagree with the author’s reasoning and conclusions, it was a thoughtful approach to how he has arrived at his personal convictions. Well done.
