Regarding Whether Christians Can Drink Alcohol

Brethren, we must follow the whole counsel of God, lest we be guilty of unfaithfulness.

There are two points to consider.

Firstly, can we make a biblical case that merely consuming an alcoholic beverage is a sin?

If we try, it would be our word against God’s.

In Deuteronomy 14:26, God instructed the people:

"And you shall spend the money for whatever your heart desires—oxen, sheep, wine, or strong drink, whatever you wish. And you shall eat there before the LORD your God and rejoice, you and your household."

This was God licensing—not drunkenness—but recreational consumption in His own temple.

The Bible does not stop there. All the Old Testament patriarchs drank alcoholic wine.

For example, Noah drank wine and became drunk (Genesis 9:20-21), and wine was part of celebrations throughout Israel’s history.

We also know that Jesus drank wine (Matthew 26:29; John 2:1-10).

But the biblical evidence that really settles this debate comes from Paul’s instructions regarding elders.

An elder must be blameless, yet Paul said he must not be given to too much wine (1 Timothy 3:3; Titus 1:7):

"...He must also have a good reputation with outsiders. He must not be a lover of money. He must not be a heavy drinker..."

Notice: it says “not a heavy drinker” (or “not given to much wine”), not total abstinence.

Finally, on this first point, non-alcoholic beverages are less than 200 years old.

This means that for nearly 2,000 years, Christians historically drank alcoholic wine.

Sincerely, what case can we truly make for total abstinence in the face of Scripture and history?

None, really.

Secondly, cultural and personal considerations matter.

For example, Baba Adeboye would likely avoid drinking vodka publicly.

Why? Culturally, it is frowned upon, and someone of his status doing it could affect the conscience of millions of weaker believers—or those who consider it sinful.

This echoes what Paul cautioned in 1 Corinthians 8:13:

"Therefore, if food makes my brother stumble, I will never eat meat, lest I make my brother stumble."

The context in Corinth was that most meat sold in the markets had been offered to pagan idols.

Some Christians thought eating it was sinful; others did not.

Paul personally agreed with the latter but instructed believers to act in a way that protected the faith of weaker brothers.

This, I believe, is the only valid argument for restraint regarding alcohol: discretion and concern for others.

I would also add that flaunting drinking beer on social media is probably not the best—not the drinking itself.

This is a personal - cultural argument, at least from my viewpoint.

Lastly, on a personal note: I choose not to drink alcohol because my conscience tells me it would be sinful for me.

That is a personal conviction.

Scripturally, however, we cannot claim that consuming alcoholic beverages is inherently sinful.

A recent study by a South African
academic, Professor Nonhlanhla P. Khumalo, Head of Dermatology at the University of Cape Town, says people are badly exposed to blood-borne viral infections during haircuts at public barbershops.
Its findings apply to any similar environments in Africa, including Zimbabwe and elsewhere.
The November 2025 study, published in the South African Medical Journal, investigated the
risk of transmission blood-borne infections and viruses such as HIV, Hepatitis B (HBV), and Hepatitis C (HCV) through haircuts and their association with conditions like Folliculitis Keloidalis Nuchae (FKN).
Its core objective was mainly to determine if the popular "chiskop" - clean-shave haircut as it is widely called in township lingo in South Africa and the condition Folliculitis Keloidalis Nuchae (FKN) (keloid-like scars on the back of the head) - increase the risk of acquiring blood-borne diseases.
The findings are damning.
Men who regularly experience visible bleeding during haircuts are significantly more likely to be HIV-positive (OR = 2.51).
In a cohort of over 1 100 men, the overall seroprevalence was 17.2% for HIV, 6.9% for HBV, and 0.4% for HCV.
While FKN itself was not directly associated with a higher prevalence of these viruses, bleeding caused by the haircutting process is a confirmed risk factor.
One clipper from each barber was collected immediately after it had been used for a clean shave haircut.
Each clipper was rinsed with phosphate buffered saline and submerged in viral medium. Polymerase chain reaction testing was then used to identify a blood specific RNA marker, haemoglobin beta, as well as hepatitis B virus and HIV.
Chiskop or clean shave haircut was found to be the most popular yet risky hairstyle, accounting for 78% of clients.
Of the clippers collected, 42% tested positive for haemoglobin beta, confirming the presence of blood.
None however tested positive for HIV, while four clippers, representing 8%, were positive for hepatitis B virus.
Two clippers were positive on qualitative hepatitis B PCR testing.
Genetic analysis showed one sample clustering with genotype A sequences from South Africa, India, Brazil and Martinique, while another clustered with South African genotype D sequences identical to a subtype D sequence previously identified in Gauteng province.
While HIV was not detected on the clippers in that specific sample, 8% of the clippers tested positive for Hepatitis B (HBV).
The DNA copies found were sufficient to pose a legitimate transmission risk.
“This study confirms that there is significant contamination of barber hair clippers with blood and blood-borne viruses,” the study says.
“Hepatitis B was detected with enough DNA copies to pose a risk of transmitting infection. Although HIV was not detected in this small study, the risk of transmission should be quantified.”
Khumalo has a long history of research on haircut-associated virus risks, with the following studies associated with her works:
"Blood and virus detection on barber clippers": Published in the South African Medical Journal in March 2018.
"Invisible Bleeding from Clean-Shave Haircuts": Published in the journal Dermatology in October 2013.
"Folliculitis keloidalis nuchae, bleeding from haircuts, and potential HIV transmission": Published in AIDS Care in May 2008.
One of her critical contributions is the identification of "invisible bleeding".
Using sensitive RNA markers (hemoglobin beta and albumin), Khumalo's team proved that blood is often present on the scalp after a clean-shave haircut even when there are no visible injuries or cuts.
This suggests standard barbering practices can facilitate blood-to-tool-to-blood contact without the barber or client being aware of an injury.
In her recommendations, Khumalo called for more public awareness of viral infection risks, barber training, and stricter adherence to clipper sterilisation protocols in salons to prevent the spread of HBV and HIV.

WHAT CONTROLS YOUR DESIRE?

Many are surrounded by blessings yet remain unsatisfied, always chasing more. This restless pursuit is not progress — it is bondage. Wealth, success, or possessions cannot give peace when the heart is disconnected from God.

True contentment comes only from the Giver, not the gifts. When desire is rightly focused on God, freedom follows — and the grip of bondage is broken.

Dr.Yosef Ben-Jochannan: Africa Civilized Europe

The period of European colonial presence in Africa is known among sovereign African historians as the Maafa – a Kiswahili word which means “Great Disaster”. It is so called because of the terror and destruction that defined this period. Africa’s indigenous development was interrupted, its monuments vandalized, its treasures looted, its knowledge systems suppressed and its history distorted by an alien culture which had no interest in “civilizing” or “enlightening” anyone.

Just as criminals erase evidence of their crimes so they can tell whatever story they like, so too did the criminal European colonizer erase as much evidence of Africa’s contributions to the story of humanity as he could, so that he could rewrite history in his own image. His “Eurocentric” dogma remained unchallenged until about 50 years ago, when the works of African historians and anthropologists like Cheikh Anta Diop placed Africa back in its rightful place: at the center of human history.

In this 1987 televised conversation produced by the University of Montevallo, USA, Author and Historian Dr. Yosef Ben-Jochannan, speaks to this long-suppressed history, with a focus on the land now known as Egypt.
