Genesis 9 vs 21

Then he drank of the wine and was drunk, and became uncovered in his tent. 

1. There is a difference between drinking and over drinking which leads to getting drunk.
2. Noah, who the Bible describes as a blameless man, drank wine, got drunk and slept nakedly publicly in drunkenness.
3. It would not have been an issue if Noah had drank a little wine, but he over-drank and became unconscious.
4. Drink in moderation.
5. Refrain from being intoxicated by drinking alcohol
6. If you overdrink even water, there will be negative repercussions.
7. Drinking wine may not be a sin, but overdrinking it will get you drunk, and you may sin in the process.
8. Noah cursed one of his three children because he did not cover his nakedness when drunk.
9. When you get drunk, you humiliate yourself and may bring a curse on your children and descendants.
