LOL! I have heard that too from Baptist cousins.  I
had to point it out to them that during Biblical times
there was no refrigeration to keep grape juice as
grape juice. Since Israel has a warm climate, grape
juice would quickly turn to wine, and then to vinegar.
 And also that when you read the Bible in its original
languages, nowhere does it say "grape juice", but
always uses the word for wine.
