Freedom;How much freedom does a believer have In Messiah Yeshua
Posted : 12 Jul, 2014 06:17 PM
Hello everyone:
Here is a verse of Scripture which has brought much division within the body of Yeshua.
John 8:36 Therefore, if the Son sets you free, you are free indeed.
Many professing believers have placed themselves into bondage by continuing under the law,I don't smoke,and i don't chew,and i don't run with those that do.
In Philadelphia,Pa. we called these believers Fundies,or Fundamentalists.
Now how much freedom do believers in Messiah have?
Can believers drink beer,wine,smoke cigarettes or weed?
Are believers free to take prescription medications.
Does freedom in Yesuha permit believers to share the Gospel with sexually immoral people.
What about people with diseases such as Aids,T.B,Ebola, or others physically transmitted diseases.
When a believers convictions do not allow themselves or others to enjoy things that make this broken life a little easier,then have we been living by faith or by rules and regulations.
I do not abdicate anarchy,drunkenness,drug abuse, or to live carnally,but ALL things in moderation,and not to force others to live by my personal convictions.
Blessings
PS:
I did not learn much in school,especially English grammar.
Please make any corrections necessary for this to be correct.

Question ????
Isn't New Wine ~ Grape Juice ?
and
Old Wine ~ Fermented ?
Grape Juice is placed in Wine Skins or today into Bottles and Fermented (over time) before consumption. The Older the Better so they say...
All answers to questions and how we are to conduct our selves will be found in the beginning...
The first mention of wine is found in Gen 9
Gen 9: 20 And Noah began to be an husbandman, and he planted a vineyard:
21 And he drank of the wine, and was drunken; and he was uncovered within his tent.
22 And Ham, the father of Canaan, saw the nakedness of his father, and told his two brethren without.
23 And Shem and Japheth took a garment, and laid it upon both their shoulders, and went backward, and covered the nakedness of their father; and their faces were backward, and they saw not their father's nakedness.
24 And Noah awoke from his wine, and knew what his younger son had done unto him.
25 And he said, Cursed be Canaan; a servant of servants shall he be unto his brethren.
26 And he said, Blessed be the Lord God of Shem; and Canaan shall be his servant.
27 God shall enlarge Japheth, and he shall dwell in the tents of Shem; and Canaan shall be his servant.
*** See what can happen when taking a "freedom" in wine for those who drink it and those that do wrong in the sight of GOD Almighty...
