Show me where alcohol is sinful in the Bible. There’s a LOT of very explicit condemnations of homosexuality, but there’s nothing about alcohol anywhere near that explicit or direct.

Partaking in alcohol in moderation is not a sin but indulging to excess would be considered one.

Oh good grief this is too easy! Eph 5:18, Prov 20:1, 23:20, 23:29-31, Ecc 10:17, Isa 5:11, 28:1, Hab 2:15, Luke 21:34, Romans 13:13, I Cor 6:10.

NOTHING spiritual comes from Alchohol. You can drink, or like dudes if you want. But don't try to say that God doesn't hate it and warn against it explicitly in the Scripture. We love our pets...

Your statement isn't exactly accurate. There are several hundred passages, but here's a sampling.

1 Timothy 3:2
A bishop then must be blameless, the husband of one wife, vigilant, sober, of good behaviour, given to hospitality, apt to teach;

Titus 2:12
Teaching us that, denying ungodliness and worldly lusts, we should live soberly, righteously, and godly, in this present world

This one tells you to be woke!

1 Thessalonians 5:6
Therefore let us not sleep, as do others; but let us watch and be sober.

Romans 14:21
It is good neither to eat flesh, nor to drink wine, nor any thing whereby thy brother stumbleth, or is offended, or is made weak.

Proverbs 20:1
Wine is a mocker, strong drink is raging: and whosoever is deceived thereby is not wise.

Isaiah 5:11
Woe unto them that rise up early in the morning, that they may follow strong drink; that continue until night, till wine inflame them!

Kingbob, here you go

Proverbs 23:20f: "Do not join those who drink too much wine or gorge themselves on meat, for drunkards and gluttons become poor, and drowsiness clothes them in rags."

Isaiah 5:11f: "Woe to those who rise early in the morning to run after their drinks, who stay up late at night till they are inflamed with wine. They have harps and lyres at their banquets, tambourines and flutes and wine, but they have no regard for the deeds of the LORD, no respect for the work of his hands."

Galatians 5:19–21: "The acts of the sinful nature are obvious: ... 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."

Ephesians 5:18: "Do not get drunk on wine, which leads to debauchery. Instead, be filled with the Spirit."
