Ano ang Sinasabi ng Bibliya Tungkol sa Alak? Kasalanan
Ba ang Uminom?
Ang sagot ng Bibliya
Hindi kasalanan ang uminom ng alak nang
katamtaman. Inilalarawan ng Bibliya ang alak bilang
isang regalo mula sa Diyos na nakapagpapasaya sa
buhay. (Awit 104:14, 15; Eclesiastes 3:13; 9:7) Kinikilala
rin ng Bibliya ang paggamit ng alak bilang gamot.—1
Timoteo 5:23.
1 Timoteo 5:23
Ephesians 5:18 -- "And be not drunk with wine, wherein is excess;
but be filled with the Spirit;"
Ang sobrang pag-inom ay nakakawala ng
pagpipigil sa sarili at hiya at “nag-aalis ng
mabuting motibo.”—Oseas 4:11; Efeso
5:18.
18 Huwag din kayong magpakalasing sa
alak,a dahil umaakay ito sa
masamang* pamumuhay; sa halip, patuloy
ninyong pagsikapan na mapuspos ng espiritu.
Galatians 5:19-21 New International Version (NIV)
19 The acts of the flesh are obvious: sexual
immorality, impurity and debauchery; 20 idolatry
and witchcraft; hatred, discord, jealousy, fits of
rage, selfish ambition, dissensions, factions 21 and
envy; drunkenness, orgies, and the like. I warn
you, as I did before, that those who live like this
will not inherit the kingdom of God.
There are three types of alcohol:
1. isopropyl 2. methanol 3. ethanol

Alcoholism in the Philippines is
evident. It is said that alcohol drinking
is one of the most addictive habit of
Filipinos (Richard Zarco). Alcoholism
affects a person‟s everyday life. It
alters the normal activities of a
person.
With this, the person‟s family will be
affected too. Reported cases of family
violence are resulted from alcohol
addiction. If these cases get worse,
effects will be shown on a larger
scale. The communities and even the
whole country will be affected.
