Thematic Bible: Drunks


Thematic Bible




Those who get up early to drink beer are as good as dead, those who keep drinking long after dark until they are intoxicated with wine. They have stringed instruments, tambourines, flutes, and wine at their parties. So they do not recognize what the Lord is doing, they do not perceive what he is bringing about.

Do not spend time among drunkards, among those who eat too much meat, because drunkards and gluttons become impoverished, and drowsiness clothes them with rags.

For those who sleep, sleep at night and those who get drunk are drunk at night. Verse ConceptsNightSleep, PhysicalSecret SinsSpiritual NightDo Not Get DrunkDrunkennessPositive Thinkingdrunkards

Even these men stagger because of wine, they stumble around because of beer -- priests and prophets stagger because of beer, they are confused because of wine, they stumble around because of beer; they stagger while seeing prophetic visions, they totter while making legal decisions.
