Alcohol Causes People to Err in Judgment
"But they also have erred through wine, and through strong drink are out of the way; the priest and the prophet have erred through strong drink they are swallowed up of wine, they are out of the way through strong drink; they err in vision, they stumble in judgment. For all tables are full of vomit and filthiness, so that there is no place clean."—Isaiah 28:7-8
When alcohol gets its hold, as it inevitably will, it creates a crisis. Poor vision, bad judgment, error upon error, vomiting and filth are the results it produces.
Drinking Among Friends Prohibited
"Woe unto him that giveth his neighbor drink, that puttest thy bottle to him, and makest him drunken also, that thou mayest look on their nakedness! Thou are filled with shame for glory: drink thou also, and let thy foreskin be uncovered: the cup of the LORD'S right hand shall be turned unto thee, and shameful spewing shall be on thy glory."—Habakkuk 2:15-16
You are here warned against sharing alcohol with others. This warning comes replete with the unsavory details of what happens when alcohol is included. Shameful things are bound to happen. The sensible thing to do is deal with the cause—just don't drink.
