Yes, Jesus drank wine. The accusation in Matthew 11:19 only makes sense if He was drinking. Nobody calls a teetotaler a drunkard. Then there’s Cana, where He made 120 gallons of wine for a wedding. And the Last Supper, where He shared the cup with His disciples. One line from the original post stuck with me, the part about abstaining as “pride dressed up as devotion.” I’ve done the same thing with other issues, congratulating myself for avoiding something Scripture never actually condemned. [Are Tattoos and Piercings a Sin?](https://forum.victoriousinprayer.com/t/are-tattoos-and-piercings-a-sin/1667) The Pharisees built whole systems out of that impulse, adding fences around the law until the fences became the law. Choosing not to drink for personal reasons is fine. Health, family history, whatever. Romans 14 gives room to partake or abstain and warns against judging each other either way. --- _[View the full topic](https://forum.victoriousinprayer.com/t/did-jesus-drink/1678)._
