False! The introduction to the 1835 printing of the revelation in the Doctrine and Covenants indicated that it was given as counsel or advice rather than as a binding commandment. Compliance with its teachings was sporadic from the late 1830s until the early years of the twentieth century, however the Church encouraged leaders to be an example to the people in abstaining from alcohol, tobacco, tea, and coffee. By 1930 abstinence from the use of alcohol, tobacco, coffee, and tea had become an official requirement for those seeking temple recommends.
