Gino Jennings was born the fourth of eight siblings on February 10, 1963. Both his parents were ministerial clergy leaders at his father's uncle's church in Philadelphia. His father known as Ernest Jennings was a bishop and at the age of thirteen, after preaching his first sermon from Hebrews 11:6, the young Gino was appointed as an assistant pastor of the church in 1975.As a teenager, after claiming the baptism of the Holy Ghost, he began preaching regularly under the tutelage of his father and great-uncle, and also began evangelizing at revivals and crusades at other churches around the city of Philadelphia with his parents.

In 1976-1978 when he was around the age of 15 he began preaching controversial sermons against the by-laws and doctrines of his great-uncle's teaching, much to his great-uncle's anger and dismay. After graduating from high school in 1981, he began preaching against his great-uncle's liberal stances on Christian sanctification, holiness, and modesty in behavior, and clothing. He began preaching that the church and those in church leadership need to have stricter and more scripture-based, conservative standards for such concepts. He also began preaching Nontrinitarian views, stating that he believed the Trinity perspective of God was false, and began preaching a distinct, Non-Trinitarian form of Modalistic Monarchianism. He also began preaching against and criticizing the stances and viewpoints that many people were starting to take within the church at the time. His great-uncle then temporarily suspended him of his ministerial duties, and made him take a one-year sabbatical leave of absence from preaching in the church. When he was finally given the opportunity to preach again, he told his great-uncle that he refused to back down from any of his viewpoints and teachings. Finally in 1984, at the age of 21, after going through repetitive cycles of being suspended from his ministerial duties and being forced to take sabbaticals from preaching, Jennings, his parents and his siblings left their great-uncle's church.

He started the First Church of Our Lord Jesus Christ. (FCOOLJC) on May 21, 1984 in the basement of his family home, starting out with only 15 members.

[Deh]

So what is meant by Ecclesiastes 9:7 where we are told to "eat food with gladness, and drink wine with a joyful heart."

[johncpa]

They called Jesus a wine bibber when he spent time with the politicians and prostitutes. God has wine in sacrificed in the Old Testament. Solomon said to give the brokenhearted man wine. Drunkenness was the sin, not wine. Looking at a pretty girl is not a sin, thinking she is pretty still not a sin, sexually lusting after her- which is more than looking is sin. This is the same with wine and drunkenness.

Little... didn't have a measurement.. one shot or drop... now we assuming what is a little.

[WauniasJ.Israel]

Is it lawful for us as Israelites who believe and follow Christ to drink wine?Yes, it is written, "No longer drink only water, but use a little wine for your stomach's sake and your frequent infirmities."1Timothy 5:23.

[WauniasJ.Israel]

I disagree Israel, simply because in moderation it is lawful for us to drink strong drinks:but when it comes down to gluttonous and drunkenness it is sinful.

[WauniasJ.Israel]

Jehovah command us who are Israelite men, "The ends of the hair around your head and on your chin may not be cut off."Leviticus 19:27.No shape ups.
