The Bible says an elder must “not be a drunkard.” That seems fair enough, and everyone agrees an alcoholic should not be appointed as a leader in the church. But is that all 1 Timothy 3:3 and Titus 1:7 teach? Does this passage mean an elder can drink a little? Does it mean an elder can’t drink, but other Christians can? When it concerns alcohol, views and questions abound. This lesson focuses on the “not a drunkard” qualification for elders but also considers the fuller Biblical teaching that applies to all Christians concerning alcohol consumption!
