Scriptures on Drunkeness

Luke 21:34-36 "But watch yourselves lest your hearts be weighed down with dissipation and drunkenness and cares of this life, and that day come upon you suddenly like a trap. For it will come upon all who dwell on the face of the whole earth. But stay awake at all times, praying that you may have strength to escape all these things that are going to take place, and to stand before the Son of Man."

1 Thessalonians 5:6-8 "So then let us not sleep, as others do, but let us keep awake and be sober. For those who sleep, sleep at night, and those who get drunk, are drunk at night. But since we belong to the day, let us be sober, having put on the breastplate of faith and love, and for a helmet the hope of salvation."

Proverbs 20:1 "Wine is a mocker, strong drink a brawler, and whoever is led astray by it is not wise."

Leaders should not get drunk:

Titus 1:7-8  "Because an overseer is God's administrator, he must be blameless. He must not be arrogant or irritable. He must not drink too much, be a violent person, or use shameful ways to make money. Instead, he must be a lover of strangers, a lover of goodness, sensible, honest, moral, and self-controlled".

1Timothy 3:8-10  "Deacons, too, must be serious. They must not be two-faced, addicted to wine, or greedy for money. They must hold firmly to the secret of the faith with clear consciences. But they must first be tested. Then, if they prove to be blameless, they may become deacons".
