Read his message below;
The preaching of Yahoo Boy pastors declaring alcohol as sinful, has no biblical approval, and forms the core of deviant teachings, that largely serve to promote Legendary embellishment and mind altering doctrines. ~FRZ

On January 4 2016, I went to a church on admiralty way, near the petrol station in Lekki, and the pastor made an alter call, asking anyone who had taken as much as a glass of champagne, wine or any form of alcohol to come forward for deliverance! People who were ignorant of what was written in their bibles, got up like zombies and went to kneel under the anointing of yet another unguided fraudster.

Does the bible see drinking beer, wine, champagne or strong drink as a sin? Well despite what the Nigerian Yahoo Boy Pastors have been teaching you, the answer is a capital NO!

DRINKING ALCOHOL IS NOT A SIN!!

In the New Testament, we have biblical evidence of Paul telling Timothy to drink a little wine instead of water 1st Timothy 5:23 KJV [23] Drink no longer water, but use a little wine for thy stomach’s sake and thine often infirmities.

Also, according to the King James Version of the bible, Deuteronomy chapter 14:26 says sell your tithe and buy wine and strong drink, while the Holman Christian Standard Bible (HCSB) translates the ancient scripture as follows; 26 You may spend the money on anything you want: cattle, sheep, wine, beer, or anything you desire. You are to feast there in the presence of the Lord your God and rejoice with your family.
So this bible verse not only supports drinking beer, wine or strong drink,
“IT SAYS YOU CAN DRINK ALCOHOL IN CHURCH”

Now, although moderate consumption of alcohol is perfectly fine, Drunkenness however, is a sin and can promote gluttony and wrath, which are 2 out of the 7 deadly vices.
Furthermore, I consider it wise to keep it in perspective, that alcohol can become addictive and can lead to other types of sin!
The bible says in the book of Proverbs 20:1 KJV
[1] Wine is a mocker, strong drink is raging: and whosoever is deceived thereby is not wise.
So as you celebrate the birth of Christ and the new year, do not let alcohol deceive or mock you.
Yes, you are right you can drink alcoholic wine, beer, strong drink, if you are church goer, but the priest in old testament were not alow to drink beer, alcoholic wine , strong drink befor entering into God tabernacle . leviticus 10:9, in isaiah 28:7 the Bible made us to understand those that drink alcoholic wine, beer, strong drink they are out of God way. in the old testament the priest are not alow to take in alcoholic wine, nor beer, nor strong drink befor entering God tabernacle. however, in the new testament the bible made us to know that every born again christian , Holy Spirit fill are all made kings and priests unto God.so the issue of drink alcohol in the church is out of it. you can not drink it befor entering the church, not to talk of drinking it inside the church. in the old testament, those priest that drink acoholic wine, beer, strong drink befor entering God tabernacle die instantly. Now let look at the tabernacle of God. God no longer dwell in tabernacle build by hand, every born again christian Holy Spirit fill, are now God tabernacle Amen. befor you can say I am a christian
you must be born again. if this is true ,that mean every christian are priest and kings unto God. if this is true, it is also true that every christian now are God temple. 1 corintian 6:19 what ?know ye not that your body is the temple of the Holy Spirit which is in you… If you are a geniue born again christian avoid false doctrine that lead to disobedient to God.
