Drink offering is said to have been common in the patriarchal period<Ref>[[Genesis 28]]:18; [[Genesis  35]]:14</Ref> and was associated with many of the sacrifices ([[Exodus 29]]:40). They could not be poured upon the golden altar of incense (Exodus 30:9) The same as they were not to have strong drink in the vicinity because of a danger of death.<Ref> [[Leviticus 10]]:9  "Do not drink wine nor strong drink, thou, nor thy sons with thee, when ye go into the tabernacle of the congregation, lest ye die: [it shall be] a statute for ever throughout your generations:"</Ref>

Others also say these [[drink offering]]s were required and accompaniment with all [[freewill offerings]] and [[votive offerings]]<Ref>[[Numbers 28]]:9 ¶  And on the sabbath day two lambs of the first year without spot, and two tenth deals of flour [for] a meat offering, mingled with oil, and the drink offering thereof:</Ref> and other established feasts (Numbers 28:14-31; Numbers 29:6-39). The reference in Deuteronomy 32:38 indicates that drink offerings were common features of heathen cultic rituals. Oil and wine, used separately or as a mixture, constituted the normal libation.

In 30 BC, [[drink offering|libation-offerings]] to the ''[[genius]] of Augustus'' became a duty at public banquets or festivals which were a part of the Roman [[Welfare|welfare]] system. From 12 BC, state [[oaths]] were [[Christian conflict|sworn by]] the ''[[genius]]'' of the living emperor or [[persecution]] would follow. We would see this play out in the [[Christian_conflict#Christians_trial|trial of Christians]] in North Africa when Emperor [[Christian_conflict#Public_and_Private_Religion|Septimius Severus outlawed]] private [[religion]], a.k.a. [[Private welfare]] which included the [[daily ministration]] of the [[early Church]]. 

The only legally acceptable [[Welfare_types|welfare system]] was the [[Public religion]] run through '''[[Imperial Cult of Rome]]''' and other government supported [[temples]] dependent upon [[tribute]] for their support.<Ref name="exauth">{{exauth}}</Ref>  

These human [[Gods|gods]] and their [[Temples|temples]] had a function in [[Society|society]] and their [[Governments|governments]]. That purpose is commonly misunderstood because if we did it might change the [[World|world]]'s view of [[Religion|religion]] and our understanding of [[pure Religion]] and what was called His Church and the [[Kingdom of God]].
