Some, however, made fun of them and said, “They have had too much wine.” (Acts 2:13) "The Call of of every Christian to be Intoxicated with Jesus through the Holy Spirit Daily" (Ephesians 5:18) WHAT YOUR FAITH IN JESUS IS MISSING, AND WHY THERE IS BOREDOM AND DRUDGERY IN DAILY LIFE, AND IN RELIGIOUS ROUTINE AS WELL. Our intoxication via the Spirit is a necessity for the joy of life in the faith of our Lord Jesus, and to keep us from growing hardened into religion, rules, routine, tradition and rituals. We obtain the Holy Spirit through taking time daily to get lost in Jesus in our prayer closets bright and early each morning each day. And by appealing daily for a fresh baptism of the Holy Ghost and fire from the Father above as described in the upper room experience the believers had in Acts chapter 2. "We must walk daily in this world under the influence of the Holy Spirit" This is the joy of Christianity (and the missing component to so many lives) in which will make even non Christians envious of our faith and the joy we are called to have as Christians in the last days in which we live. "Do not get drunk on wine, which leads to debauchery. Instead, be filled with the Spirit" (Ephesians 5:18) "Wine that gladdens human hearts, oil to make their faces shine, and bread that sustains their hearts." (Psalm 104:15) "14 Then Peter stood up with the Eleven, raised his voice and addressed the crowd: “Fellow Jews and all of you who live in Jerusalem, let me explain this to you; listen carefully to what I say. 15 These people are not DRUNK, as you suppose. It’s only nine in the morning! 16 No, this is what was spoken by the prophet Joel;" (Acts 2:14-16) https://youtube/watch?v=6CGdwBrIvww
