London based Ghanaian gospel artiste Alice Mckenzie has said she does not see anything wrong with a Christian drinking alcohol.
Reacting to Diana Asamoah’s notion that people who drink alcohol are senseless in a recent interview stated that a Christian can drink alcohol but not abuse it.
“I think a Christian can drink but need to have a limit to it because alcohol itself has its own advantages and disadvantages“.
She even backed it with a Bible verse: Galatians 5:13 that anyone who wants to drink should do that in moderation and 1 Timothy 5:23 which talks about drinking little wine for the sake of one’s stomach and frequent cases of sickness.
She added that she doesn’t drink liquor by any means, however, she supposes the discussion of whether liquor is great or not ought not to be constrained to Christians but rather one’s experience, restorative esteem, manner, and condition must be considered into the dialogue.
“Not everyone drinks alcohol and go out there to misbehave, so the fact that few people might be drinking it unwisely doesn’t really make any other person drinking it senseless “ she added.
Alice McKenzie was nominated in the just ended Ghana Music Awards UK in the “UK Based New Gospel Artiste of The Year” category.
