From the sidelines: New American Standard Bible: ...and said to him, “Every man serves the good wine first, and when the guests are drunk, then he serves the poorer wine; but you have kept the good wine until now.” John 2:10  

I'm asking you a very simple Yes-No question. So, no need to go on another rant.   Yes or No: Are proslytes, i.e., non-Hebrew Gentile converts to the Covenant people Israel, who are then afterward born again in Messiah, included in the New Covenant as Hebrew Israelites, even though they are of pure non-Hebrew Gentile stock?

The big pharmacy conglomerates are deceivers and are mentioned in Revelation as sorcerers. (Rev. 18:23).   How shameful it is to accuse me of calling everyone on psych meds heathens.  Try to stay within yourself.  Wine is a natural remedy, and it cures some ailments, but we are not drink to excess and get drunk off of it.  You should know this.    Your assumption that the weddings guests were drunk is assuming facts not in scripture. Keep to what is written, and stay within yourself.    Psychedelics alter the mind. Psych meds alter the mind. Mind altering in both cases is done through chemicals, some naturally occurring and most lab manufactured.  When the mind is altered, the demons know and target that altered mind.  I know this because I've seen it with my own eyes.    Satan is called the god of this world and prince of the power of the air for a reason. And he never rests. 

Cc @Dennis1209 There you are. Even Marilyn agrees. What better description of the rapture can there be. We have neither part, nor power nor say when we are "snatched away" (harpazo) like prisoners. So also Joseph. He "took" Mary to be wife and he "took" with Mary to Egypt - "paralambano" in both cases.

1 Cor 14:2 - For anyone who speaks in a tongue does not speak to people but to God. Indeed, no one understands them; they utter mysteries by the Spirit.  4 - Anyone who speaks in a tongue edifies themselves, but the one who prophesies edifies the church. 5 - I would like every one of you to speak in tongues, but I would rather have you prophesy. The one who prophesies is greater than the one who speaks in tongues, unless someone interprets, so that the church may be edified.  9 - So it is with you. Unless you speak intelligible words with your tongue, how will anyone know what you are saying? You will just be speaking into the air.  12 - So it is with you. Since you are eager for gifts of the Spirit, try to excel in those that build up the church.  13 - For this reason the one who speaks in a tongue should pray that they may interpret what they say. 14 - For if I pray in a tongue, my spirit prays, but my mind is unfruitful. For those who think that tongues is still in use, these verses should guide the use of the gift.  Bottom line, if the person can't interpret what he/she is saying, they shouldn't use the gift among other believers.  Because v.14 is true.
