I know Jeff Durbin has been attacked quite harshly by Pulpit and Pen (I would stay away from Pulpit and Pen) concerning things like alcohol.
I watched a broadcast with James White interviewing Jeff Durbin on the controversy this caused.
This just might have something to do with why Jeff Durbin spoke on that topic?
I think it is a good idea to listen to Jeff again, to understand the full context.

Did not know this. And yes, I've gathered that P&P aren't very good.


Jeff Durbin is someone the secular world would term alcoholic or addict. However, being a Christian, he identifies that as a category of sin, and essentially is misguided worship. His church began when he was a chaplain at a hospital working with addicts and alcoholics, and are those very people with which his church is primarily comprised. Of course, there are members now who haven't come from addiction, but also the other various ministries he's involved with, such as the EndAbortionNow movement that he started. So, the reason behind discussions with Jeff involving alcohol or addiction stem from his past. Just an FYI moment


I will do this tonight and get back with ya afterward! I may have mistook him thinking he was referencing exactly from scripture. I know I didn't get this idea from nowhere. But maybe I'm misunderstanding what he said, or is it possible that what he said was meant exegetically?

What broadcast was this? Is there a title to the episode that I can look up to watch? I assume you watched this on YouTube?

I will look for it and post it if I find it.
