Just because they believe it, doesn't make it true.
Do you recognize the words Bible, Trinity, and rapture? Guess what, those words aren't in the Bible.

Why are alcohol spirits called spirits?
One theory is that the word alcohol is derived from al-ghawl. This is the most straightforward way to link alcohol and spirits, as the word means spirit. It's referenced in The Qur'an--verse 37:47 mentions al-ghawl to refer to a demon or spirit that produces intoxication.

Psalm 110:4 " The LORD hath sworn, and will not repent, Thou art a priest for ever after the order of Melchizedek."
1st Corinthians 11:23 "
For I have received of the Lord that which also I delivered unto you, That the Lord Jesus the same night in which he was betrayed took bread:
24 And when he had given thanks, he brake it, and said, Take, eat: this is my body, which is broken for you: this do in remembrance of me.
25 After the same manner also he took the cup ([OF WINE]), when he had supped, saying, This cup is the new testament in my blood: this do ye, as oft as ye drink it, in remembrance of me.
