When discussing what the bible explicitly states, some will state "well, its just your opinion". Some will even state "well, I don't see it that way". The implications are that truth is just a matter of opinion; but is it?
If God declared something that which offends him; that applies to all people at all times everywhere. If God declared that getting drunk offends him and a believer in that which was declared re-states the declaration, is it just their opinion? No, it is still God's declaration.
