Is there any reference to Jesus having drunk to excess at any time?<\/p>\n\t
To drink an alcoholic beverage would be drunkenness, which is a sin. “Or do you not know that the unrighteous shall not inherit the kingdom of God? Do not be deceived; neither fornicators, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor effeminate, nor homosexuals, nor thieves, nor the covetous, nor drunkards, nor revilers, nor swindlers, shall inherit the kingdom of God<\/em>” (I\u00a0Corinthians 6:9-10).<\/p>\n Jesus, however, never sinned, which is why\u00a0he was the only ideal sacrifice for the sins of mankind. “For we do not have a high priest who cannot sympathize with our weaknesses, but One who has been tempted in all things as we are, yet without sin<\/em>” (Hebrews 4:15).<\/p>\n Therefore, Jesus never drank to excess.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Question: Is there any reference to Jesus having drunk to excess at any time?
