The Lord spoke to Aaron saying, "Do not drink wine or strong drink, neither you nor your sons with you, when you come into the tent of meeting Leviticus 10:9
The Old Testament Priests were commissioned to make distinction between holy and profane, clean and unclean, and teach the people. God wanted them to be good examples and get it right, and therefore avoid wine and strong drink. I Peter 2:9 tells us that in the New Covenant of Christ, we are all priests. We are called to proclaim the excellencies and light of Christ. Our tent of meeting is never closed. We're on duty all the time. Let's watch our behavior. Everyone else is watching.
