The Christian Pint: The Testimony of Paul Washer

This is the testimony of Paul Washer, a great Christian Preacher speaking about his conversion to Christianity. It is scary how much his parallels mine. Enjoy.

A SIP OF WINE OR A SHOT OF GRAPE JUICE

A Sip of Wine or a Shot of Grape Juice (PDF) is brief paper by Tyler A. Ervin on the culturally imposed sin of abstentionism and the historical roots within the Southern Baptist culture.

You cause the grass to grow for the livestock and plants for man to cultivate, that he may bring forth food from the earth and wine to gladden the heart of man, oil to make his face shine and bread to strengthen man’s heart. - Psalm 104:14-15

And if the way is too long for you, so that you are not able to carry the tithe, when the LORD your God blesses you, because the place is too far from you, which the LORD your God chooses, to set his name there, then you shall turn it into money and bind up the money in your hand and go to the place that the LORD your God chooses and spend the money for whatever you desire—oxen or sheep or wine or strong drink, whatever your appetite craves. And you shall eat there before the LORD your God and rejoice, you and your household. - Deuteronomy 14:24-26
