Grandpa, Are You a Winebibber?

Today in family Bible Study, we read out of Proverbs 23, which contains this statement:

"Do not mix with winebibbers," (Prov. 23:20a)

Tonight we had dinner with my grandparents at their house. I went into the kitchen and saw my brother getting orange juice out of the fridge. This is how the conversation went:

Bobby: Caroline, what is that back there?

Me: I think it's wine.

Bobby:
WHAT??

Me: I said, I think it's wine.

Bobby:
GRANDPA, are you a winebibber???

Okay--in fairness to Grandpa, he isn't a "winebibber" in the sense in which it's used in Proverbs. And he was keeping the wine for neighbors...I think....

Bobby has always been one to "call a spade a spade." I suppose it's good when we study the bible and then can make direct application.

At least Dad didn't "whine" about it.

Haha...that's hilarious! :)

On another note...

I've referred to the rebelution modesty survey twice in the last couple of weeks. So thanks for sharing that link; it came in quite handy. :) The lack of modesty these days is amazing.
