Christians still do those things nonetheless. Does that mean that they are suddenly non-Christians because they drink?


Did you not read the first part of the sentence? I said everyone will make mistakes and sin, but to say you are allowed to do it because you know Christ will forgive you is wrong. Just because God will forgive us doesn't mean we can do whatever we want and then just ask for forgiveness. That isn't how Christianity works. God should be controlling our lives. If you are letting your sins control you then perhaps you should rethink if you are really a Christian or not.

Teenage years? It is normal. News flash you can still do everything as a Christian. You are still allowed to go out to Night Clubs, drink alcohol, smoke, do drugs, even murder people. You can still be a Christian because being a Christian means you have accepted God into your life. Sooner or later you will get over this addiction you have. Maybe not today or tomorrow or this year. Sooner or later you won't be doing what you are doing now.

It is all temporary.


Heb. 10:26-27 "For if we sin willfullyafter we have received the knowledge of the truth, there no longer remains a sacrifice for sins. But a certain fearful expectation of judgment, and fiery indignation which will devour the adversaries." (NKJV)

I MUST reply to this. Asuming you are youngPLEASE DO NOT USE THIS MEDIA to be the end all answer to this question. Seek out a trustworthy mature Christian and discuss this face to face. There are many men of God out there(do not even have to be ordained) that you should be able to locate to speak on this issue. An issue concerning morals should be handled with a mature person of whom you have complete trust with.

This is not true at all. Please learn what a Christian is. To be a Christian means you are to be like Christ to the best of your ability. Everyone will make mistakes because we are not Christ, but to say you are allowed to party, drink, do drugs, and murder is completely wrong. It is true that God will always forgive us, but that does not mean that you have a free card to do w/e you want and they it will all be forgiven. Please quit leading people astray.

Now on subject.
It is normal for you to have lust and other bodily needs. It is up to you to get closer with God to help you with your problems. Try talking with your Youth Counselor about it. He should be able to help you get closer with God.


This is so correct on all aspects.

So what you are all saying is that if you go to nightclubs and drink alcohol, smoke, drugs etc. that you should be questioning whether you are really a Christian or not?

Is that what you are all saying exactly?

I will add my opinion for what it is worth.

I think if a person has been truly saved, he or she will not want to do these things. A tree will be known by the fruit it bears. Someone that does these things that has been saved is certainly out of the will of God.

Where is the sin of going to Nightclubs and drinking alcohol? Jesus himself drank alcohol and turned water into wine remember?

Are you being serious? Or are you actually just getting your post count up? I can't tell....

Where is there sin in Nightclubs? Why do youths typically go to nightclubs if not to get crunked and hook up with random people?

And whereas you are correct in saying that the consumption of alcohol is not a sin in itself, it can however lead to sin. People who are sloshed/crunked/drunk typically don't make decisions as well as people who are sober, wouldn't you say?

Again, I'm not sure if you're being serious or not but if you're just getting your +1's, do it elsewhere.

Alcohol effects people differently. Drunkedness is a sin. Having a drink is not in my opinion; however, I think it certainly kills one's Christian witness.

I challenge you to show me anywhere in the Bible that says Jesus drank alcohol. Water to wine, agreed. Jesus drinking alcohol, disagree.
